# Chapter 124
|
|
1 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side—
|
|
let Israel now say—
|
|
2 if it had not been the Lord who was on our side
|
|
when people rose up against us,
|
|
3 then they would have swallowed us up alive,
|
|
when their anger was kindled against us;
|
|
4 then the flood would have swept us away,
|
|
the torrent would have gone over us;
|
|
5 then over us would have gone
|
|
the raging waters.
|
|
6 Blessed be the Lord,
|
|
who has not given us
|
|
as prey to their teeth!
|
|
7 We have escaped like a bird
|
|
from the snare of the fowlers;
|
|
the snare is broken,
|
|
and we have escaped!
|
|
8 Our help is in the name of the Lord,
|
|
who made heaven and earth. |
