CHAPTER

Psalms 124

1. 1

   A Song of Ascents. By David. If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, let Israel now say,

2. 2

   if it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us,

3. 3

   then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us,

4. 4

   then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul.

5. 5

   Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.

6. 6

   Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7. 7

   Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

8. 8

   Our help is in the LORD’s name, who made heaven and earth.
