^1. Psalm 124 A song of ascents. Of David.

^1. If the LORD had not been on our side-- let Israel say--

^2. if the LORD had not been on our side when men attacked us,

^3. when their anger flared against us, they would have swallowed us alive;

^4. the flood would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over us,

^5. the raging waters would have swept us away.

^6. Praise be to the LORD, who has not let us be torn by their teeth.

^7. We have escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped.

^8. Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
