Psalm 124
Praise for
Deliverance from Enemies |
A Song of degrees of
David. |
|
1 |
If it had not been the
LORD who was on our side,
|
2 |
If it had not been the
LORD who was on our side,
|
when men rose up against
us: |
|
|
3 |
then they had swallowed us up quick,
|
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 the LORD,
|
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 the
LORD,
|
who made heaven and
earth. |
