Psalms 124

Psalm 124
The Lord Is on Our Side
A Davidic song of ascents.
1 If the Lord had not been on our side—
let Israel say—
2 If the Lord had not been on our side(a)
when men attacked us,(b)
3 then they would have swallowed us alive
in their burning anger against us.(c)
4 Then the waters would have engulfed us;
the torrent would have swept over us;
5 the raging waters would have swept over us.(d)
6 Praise the Lord,
who has not let us be ripped apart by their teeth.(e)
7 We have escaped like a bird from the hunter's net;
the net is torn, and we have escaped.(f)
8 Our help is in the name of Yahweh,
the Maker of heaven and earth.(g)
