Psalms 124

VIN(i) 1 A Song of degrees of David. ¶ If the LORD had not been for us, now may Israel say, 2 if the LORD had not been on our side, when men came against us, 3 then they had swallowed us alive when they kindled their wrath against us: 4 Then the flood waters would have overwhelmed us, the torrent would have flooded over us; 5 the swollen waters would have swept us away. 6 Praise be to the Lord, who has not let us be wounded by their teeth. 7 Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowlers' snare; the snare is broken, and we have escaped. 8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth.
