Psalms 124
(sp1, sp2) 1. A Song of degrees of David. If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;
(sp1, sp2) 2. If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:
(sp1, sp2) 3. Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:
(sp1, sp2) 4. Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
(sp1, sp2) 5. Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
(sp1, sp2) 6. Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
(sp1, sp2) 7. Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.
(sp1, sp2) 8. Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
