Psalm One Hundred and Twenty Four

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.
