124:1  A Song of Ascents. Of David. “Had Adonai not been on our side” —let Israel now say—
124:2  “Had Adonai not been on our side, when men rose up against us,
124:3  then they would have swallowed us alive, when their wrath burned against us.
124:4  Then the waters would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over our soul,
124:5  then the raging waters would have swept over our soul.”
124:6  Blessed be Adonai, who has not given us as prey for their teeth.
124:7  Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the snare of the trappers— the snare is broken, and we escaped!
124:8  Our help is in the Name of Adonai, Maker of heaven and earth.
