Psalms - Chapter 124 | New King James Version

  • 1. A Song of Ascents. Of David. "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 men rose up against us,
  • 3. Then they would have swallowed us alive, When their wrath was kindled against us;
  • 4. Then the waters would have overwhelmed us, The stream would have gone over our soul;
  • 5. Then the swollen waters Would have gone over our soul."
  • 6. Blessed be the Lord, Who has not given us as prey to their teeth.
  • 7. Our soul has escaped as a bird from the snare of the fowlers; {cf2super [99]} The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
  • 8. Our help is in the name of the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.
