Chapter 124

1 A Song of Ascents. By David. If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, let Israel now say,

2 if it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, when men rose up against us,

3 then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us,

4 then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul.

5 Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.

6 Blessed be Yahweh, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7 Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

8 Our help is in Yahweh’s name, who made heaven and earth.

1 A Song of Ascents; of David. If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side, Let Israel now say,

2 If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side, When men rose up against us;

3 Then they had swallowed us up alive, When their wrath was kindled against us:

4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, The stream had gone over our soul;

5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

6 Blessed be Jehovah, Who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: The snare is broken, and we are escaped.

8 Our help is in the name of Jehovah, Who made heaven and earth.
