124:1  If the LORD had not been on our side— let Israel now say—
124:2  if the LORD had not been on our side, when men came against us,
124:3  then they would have devoured us alive, when their anger burned against us.
124:4  Then the flood waters would have overwhelmed us, the torrent would have flooded over us;
124:5  the swollen waters would have swept us away.
124:6  Blessed be the LORD, who did not give us as prey to their teeth.
124:7  We have escaped like a bird from the hunter's trap. The trap has been broken, and we have escaped.
124:8  Our help is in the name of the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth.
