Psalm 124

1 A song of ascents. By David: If ADONAI hadn't been for us -let Isra'el repeat it -

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 ADONAI hadn't been for us when people rose to attack us,

2 "If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, When men rose up against us,

3 then, when their anger blazed against us, they would have swallowed us alive!

3 Then they would have swallowed us alive, When their wrath was kindled against us;

4 Then the water would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over us.

4 Then the waters would have overwhelmed us, The stream would have gone over our soul;

5 Yes, the raging water would have swept right over us.

5 Then the swollen waters Would have gone over our soul."

6 Blessed be ADONAI, who did not leave us to be a prey for their teeth!

6 Blessed be the Lord, Who has not given us as prey to their teeth.

7 We escaped like a bird from the hunter's trap; the trap is broken, and we have escaped.

7 Our soul has escaped as a bird from the snare of the fowlers; The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

8 Our help is in the name of ADONAI, the maker of heaven and earth.

8 Our help is in the name of the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.
