Psalms 124:1-6

GNT

NIV

1 What if the Lord had not been on our side? Answer, O Israel!
1 If the LORD had not been on our side— let Israel say—
2 "If the Lord had not been on our side when our enemies attacked us,
2 if the LORD had not been on our side when people attacked us,
3 then they would have swallowed us alive in their furious anger against us;
3 they would have swallowed us alive when their anger flared against us;
4 then the flood would have carried us away, the water would have covered us,
4 the flood would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over us,
5 the raging torrent would have drowned us."
5 the raging waters would have swept us away.
6 Let us thank the Lord, who has not let our enemies destroy us.
6 Praise be to the LORD, who has not let us be torn by their teeth.
