psalms124
- 1If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;
- 2If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:
- 3Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:
- 4Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
- 5Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
- 6Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
- 7Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.
- 8Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
