Psalm 124
Thanksgiving for Israel’s Deliverance
A Song of Ascents. Of David.
1 # Ps 94.17; 129.1 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side
—let Israel now say—
2if it had not been the Lord who was on our side,
when our enemies attacked us,
3 # Ps 56.1; 57.3; Prov 1.12 then they would have swallowed us up alive,
when their anger was kindled against us;
4 # Ps 69.2 then the flood would have swept us away;
the torrent would have gone over us;
5then over us would have gone
the raging waters.
6 # Ps 27.2 Blessed be the Lord,
who has not given us
as prey to their teeth.
7 # Ps 91.3; Prov 6.5 We have escaped like a bird
from the snare of the hunters;
the snare is broken,
and we have escaped.
8 # Gen 1.1; Ps 121.2 Our help is in the name of the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.
