124:1  If it had not been the Lord Who was on our side—now may Israel say—
124:2  If it had not been the Lord Who was on our side when men rose up against us,
124:3  Then they would have quickly swallowed us up alive when their wrath was kindled against us;
124:4  Then the waters would have overwhelmed us and swept us away, the torrent would have gone over us;
124:5  Then the proud waters would have gone over us.
124:6  Blessed be the Lord, Who has not given us as prey to their teeth!
124:7  We are like a bird escaped from the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we have escaped!
124:8  Our help is in the name of the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.
