Psalms 124

King James Version KJV

1 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;

2 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:

3 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:

4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:

5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

6 Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

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.
