Psalms 124
124
God the Protector of his People#Ps 124 Hebrew title: By David.
1What if the LORD had not been on our side?
Answer, O Israel!
2“If the LORD had not been on our side
when our enemies attacked us,
3then they would have swallowed us alive
in their furious anger against us;
4then the flood would have carried us away,
the water would have covered us,
5the raging torrent would have drowned us.”
6Let us thank the LORD,
who has not let our enemies destroy us.
7We have escaped like a bird from a hunter's trap;
the trap is broken, and we are free!
8Our help comes from the LORD,
who made heaven and earth.

Psalms 124
124
Had He Not Been on Our Side
1A Song of Ascents. Of David. “Had Adonai not been on our side” —let Israel now say—
2“Had Adonai not been on our side, when men rose up against us,
3then they would have swallowed us alive, when their wrath burned against us.
4Then the waters would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over our soul,
5then the raging waters would have swept over our soul.”
6Blessed be Adonai, who has not given us as prey for their teeth.
7Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the snare of the trappers— the snare is broken, and we escaped!
8Our help is in the Name of Adonai, Maker of heaven and earth.
