Psalm 124

A song of ascents. Of David.

1 If theLordhad not been on our side—

let Israel say—

2 if theLordhad not been on our side

when people attacked us,

3 they would have swallowed us alive

when their anger flared against us;

4 the flood would have engulfed us,

the torrent would have swept over us,

5 the raging waters

would have swept us away.

6 Praise be to theLord,

who has not let us be torn by their teeth.

7 We have escaped like a bird

from the fowler’s snare;

the snare has been broken,

and we have escaped.

8 Our help is in the name of theLord,

the Maker of heaven and earth.
