Chapter 124
|
1
|
If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now
may Israel say; |
2
|
If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when
men rose up against us: |
3
|
Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath
was kindled against us: |
4
|
Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had
gone over our soul: |
5
|
Then the proud waters had gone over our soul. |
6
|
Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey
to their teeth. |
7
|
Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the
fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped. |
8
|
Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven
and earth. |
