124:1  A song of ascents, by David. "If the LORD had not been on our side"--let Israel say this!--
124:2  if the LORD had not been on our side, when men attacked us,
124:3  they would have swallowed us alive, when their anger raged against us.
124:4  The water would have overpowered us; the current would have overwhelmed us.
124:5  The raging water would have overwhelmed us.
124:6  The LORD deserves praise, for he did not hand us over as prey to their teeth.
124:7  We escaped with our lives, like a bird from a hunter's snare. The snare broke, and we escaped.
124:8  Our deliverer is the LORD, the Creator of heaven and earth.
