Psalm 124
- 1
A song of ascents. Of David. If the LORD had not been on our side—let Israel now declare— Begin Abide·
- 2
if the LORD had not been on our side when men attacked us, Begin Abide·
- 3
when their anger flared against us, then they would have swallowed us alive, Begin Abide·
- 4
then the floods would have engulfed us, then the torrent would have overwhelmed us, Begin Abide·
- 5
then the raging waters would have swept us away. Begin Abide·
- 6
Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as prey to their teeth. Begin Abide·
- 7
We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowler; the net is torn, and we have slipped away. Begin Abide·
- 8
Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. Begin Abide·
