Psalm 124 Nisi quia Dominus
IF the LORD himself had not been on our side, now may Israel say; * if the LORD himself had not been on our side, when men rose up against us;
2They had swallowed us up alive; * when they were so wrathfully displeased at us.
3Yea, the waters had drowned us, * and the stream had gone over our soul.
4The deep waters of the proud * had gone even over our soul.
5But praised be the LORD, * who hath not given us over for a prey unto their teeth.
6Our soul is escaped even as a bird out of the snare of the fowler; * the snare is broken, and we are delivered.
7Our help standeth in the Name of the LORD, * who hath made heaven and earth.
