Psalms
Chapter 124
1 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, now may Israel say; A Song of degrees of David.
2 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men rose up against us: A Song of degrees of David.
3 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us: A Song of degrees of David.
4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul: A Song of degrees of David.
5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul. A Song of degrees of David.
6 Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth. A Song of degrees of David.
7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped. A Song of degrees of David.
8 Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
