Psalm 124

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

5 the raging waters would have swept us away.

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

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

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

7 We have escaped like a bird from the fowler’s snare; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped.

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

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

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