Psalms 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!

The Lord Is on Our Side
A Davidic song of ascents.
1If the Lord had not been on our side —
let Israel say —
2If the Lord had not been on our side # Ps 94:17
when men attacked us, # Ps 129:1
3then they would have swallowed us alive
in their burning anger against us. # Ps 35:25; 56:1; Pr 1:12
4Then the waters would have engulfed us;
the torrent would have swept over us;
5the raging waters would have swept over us. # Jb 22:11; Ps 32:6; 69:2
6Praise the Lord,
who has not let us be ripped apart by their teeth. # Ps 27:2; Pr 30:14
7We have escaped like a bird from the hunter’s net;
the net is torn, and we have escaped. # Ps 91:3
8Our help is in the name of Yahweh,
the Maker of heaven and earth. # Ps 115:15; 121:2
