Psalms 124

English - NAS (Red Letter)

1 "Had it not been the LORD who was on our side," Let Israel now say,

2 "Had it not been the LORD who was on our side When men rose up against us,

3 Then they would have swallowed us alive, When their anger was kindled against us;

4 Then the waters would have engulfed us, The stream would have swept over our soul;

5 Then the raging waters would have swept over our soul."

6 Blessed be the LORD, Who has not given us to be torn by their teeth.

7 Our soul has escaped as a bird out of the snare of the trapper; The snare is broken and we have escaped.

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