Psalms 124:1-6

1 "If the LORD had not been on our side..." (Israel should repeat this.)

1 If the LORD had not been on our side— let Israel say—

2 "If the LORD had not been on our side when people attacked us,

2 if the LORD had not been on our side when people attacked us,

3 then they would have swallowed us alive when their anger exploded against us.

3 they would have swallowed us alive when their anger flared against us;

4 Then the floodwaters would have swept us away. An [overflowing] stream would have washed us away.

4 the flood would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over us,

5 Then raging water would have washed us away."

5 the raging waters would have swept us away.

6 Thank the LORD, who did not let them sink their teeth into us.

6 Praise be to the LORD, who has not let us be torn by their teeth.
