Psalms 124

1If the Lord hadn't been for us, what would have happened? Let everyone in Israel say:

2If the Lord hadn't been for us, what would have happened when people came and attacked us?

3They would have swallowed us alive when their anger raged against us.

4Like a flood they would have swept over us; like a rushing torrent they would have submerged us.

5They would have rushed over us like raging waters, drowning us.

6Praise the Lord, who didn't hand us over to them as prey to be ripped apart by their teeth.

7We escaped from them like a bird flying out of a hunter's trap. The trap was broken and we flew away!

8Our help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
