Psalms 124

1 Ow may Israel say, If the Lord 1 was riot on our side when men rose up against us, then they had swallowed us up quick when their wrath was kindled against us.

2 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul;

3 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

4 Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

5 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

6 Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
