Psalms 124
Praise for Rescue from Enemies.
A Song of Ascents, of David.
1 “ aHad it not been the Lord who was on our side,”
bLet Israel say,
2 “Had it not been the Lord who was on our side
When people rose up against us,
3 Then they would have cswallowed us alive,
When their danger was kindled against us;
4 Then the ewaters would have flooded over us,
The stream would have ▼
▼Or passed over
swept over our souls; 5 Then the graging waters would have ▼
▼Or passed over
swept over our souls.” 6 Blessed be the Lord,
Who has not given us ▼
▼Lit as a prey to
to be jtorn by their teeth. 7 Our souls have kescaped llike a bird from the trapper’s msnare;
The snare is broken and we have escaped.
8 Our nhelp is in the name of the Lord,
Who omade heaven and earth.
