Psalm 124

1If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, let Israel now say, 2when men rose up against us; if it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, 3when their wrath was kindled against us; then they would have swallowed us up alive, 4the stream would have gone over our soul; then the waters would have overwhelmed us, 5then the proud waters would have gone over our soul. 6who has not given us as a prey to their teeth. Blessed be Yahweh, 7The snare is broken, and we have escaped. Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. 8who made heaven and earth. Our help is in Yahweh’s name,
