Psalms 124

New King James Version NKJV

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

3 Then they would have swallowed us 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 swollen waters Would have gone over our soul."

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

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 the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.

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.
