Psalm 124

Good News Translation GNT

1 What if the Lord had not been on our side? Answer, O Israel!

2 "If the Lord had not been on our side when our enemies attacked us,

3 then they would have swallowed us alive in their furious anger against us;

4 then the flood would have carried us away, the water would have covered us,

5 the raging torrent would have drowned us."

6 Let us thank the Lord, who has not let our enemies destroy us.

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

8 Our help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

1 <<A Song of Ascents. By David.>> If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, Let Israel now say,

2 If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, When men rose up against us;

3 Then they would have swallowed us up 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 proud waters would have gone over our soul.

6 Blessed be Yahweh, Who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7 Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

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