Psalms • Chapter 124
1
A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. A psalm of David. If the Lord hadn't been for us, what would have happened? Let everyone in Israel say:
2
If the Lord hadn't been for us, what would have happened when people came and attacked us?
3
Like a flood they would have swept over us; like a rushing torrent they would have submerged us.
4
They would have rushed over us like raging waters, drowning us.
5
Praise the Lord, who didn't hand us over to them as prey to be ripped apart by their teeth.
6
We escaped from them like a bird flying out of a hunter's trap. The trap was broken and we flew away!
7
Our help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
