124:1 [A
Song
of
Ascents.
Of
David.]
If
it
had
not
been
the
LORD
who
was
on
our
side--
let
Israel
now
say--
124:2 if
it
had
not
been
the
LORD
who
was
on
our
side
when
people
rose
up
against
us,
124:3 then
they
would
have
swallowed
us
up
alive,
when
their
anger
was
kindled
against
us;
124:4 then
the
flood
would
have
swept
us
away,
the
torrent
would
have
gone
over
us;
124:5 then
over
us
would
have
gone
the
raging
waters.
124:6 Blessed
be
the
LORD,
who
has
not
given
us
as
prey
to
their
teeth!
124:7 We
have
escaped
like
a
bird
from
the
snare
of
the
fowlers;
the
snare
is
broken,
and
we
have
escaped!
124:8 Our
help
is
in
the
name
of
the
LORD,
who
made
heaven
and
earth.
