124:1  A song to sing as we climb. David wrote this song. If the Lord was not fighting for us, what would have happened? Israel's people, now answer:
124:2  ‘If the Lord was not fighting for us when men attacked us,
124:3  our enemies would have eaten us alive! They would have destroyed us, because they were so angry against us.
124:4  They would have been too strong for us, like rivers of waters that covered us,
124:5  They would have been like deep water over our heads that drowned us.
124:6  We should praise the Lord! He did not let our enemies destroy us, like wild animals that kill their food and eat it.
124:7  Now we have become free, like a bird that got free out of a trap. Our enemies lost their power, and we are free!
124:8  The one who helped us is the Lord. He made the whole universe.’
