AB - Psalms - 124

124:1  A Song of Degrees. If it had not been that the Lord was among us, let Israel now say;

124:2  if it had not been that the Lord was among us, when men rose up against us;

124:3  verily they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us:

124:4  verily the water would have drowned us, our soul would have gone under the torrent.

124:5  Yea, our soul would have gone under the overwhelming water.

124:6  Blessed be the Lord, who has not given us for a prey to their teeth.

124:7  Our soul has been delivered as a sparrow from the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are delivered.

124:8  Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
