Psalms 124
King James Version
1¶ A Song of degrees of David. If the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;2If the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:3Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:4Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:5Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.6¶ Blessed the LORD, who hath not given us a prey to their teeth.7Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.8Our help in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
