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 pilgrimage song. Of David.
1If the LORD hadn’t been for us—
let Israel now repeat!—
2if the LORD hadn’t been for us,
when those people attacked us
3then they would have swallowed us up whole
with their rage burning against us!
4Then the waters would have drowned us;
the torrent would have come over our necks;#124.4 Or soul; also in 124:5, 7
5then the raging waters would have come over our necks!
6Bless the LORD
because he didn’t hand us over
like food for our enemies’ teeth!
7We escaped like a bird from the hunters’ trap;
the trap was broken so we escaped!
8Our help is in the name of the LORD,
the maker of heaven and earth.
