124:1  If the Lord hadn’t been for us— let Israel now repeat!—
124:2  if the Lord hadn’t been for us, when those people attacked us
124:3  then they would have swallowed us up whole with their rage burning against us!
124:4  Then the waters would have drowned us; the torrent would have come over our necks;
124:5  then the raging waters would have come over our necks!
124:6  Bless the Lord because he didn’t hand us over like food for our enemies’ teeth!
124:7  We escaped like a bird from the hunters’ trap; the trap was broken so we escaped!
124:8  Our help is in the name of the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth.
