Psalms 124
124
Victory
A song of the stairway by King David
1What if God had not been on our side? Let all Israel admit this!
2-3What if God had not been there for us?
Our enemies, in their violent anger,
would have swallowed us up alive!
4-5The nations, with their flood of rage, would have swept us away,
and we would have drowned
and perished beneath their torrent of terror!
6We can praise God over and over that he never left us!
God wouldn’t allow the terror of our enemies to defeat us.
7We are free from the hunter’s trap;
their snare is broken and we have escaped!
8For the same God who made everything,
our Creator and our mighty maker,
he himself is our helper and defender!

Psalm 124
A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord. A psalm of David.
1Here is what Israel should say.
Suppose the Lord had not been on our side.
2Suppose the Lord had not been on our side
when our enemies attacked us.
3Suppose he had not been on our side
when their burning anger blazed out against us.
Then they would have swallowed us alive.
4They would have been like a flood that drowned us.
They would have swept over us like a rushing river.
5They would have washed us away
like a swollen stream.
6Give praise to the Lord.
He has not let our enemies chew us up.
7We have escaped like a bird
from a hunter’s trap.
The trap has been broken,
and we have escaped.
8Our help comes from the Lord.
He is the Maker of heaven and earth.
