Psalms 124 LSV

1. A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY DAVID. If YHWH had not been for us (Pray, let Israel say),

2. If YHWH had not been for us, in the rising up of man against us,

3. Then they had swallowed us alive, in the burning of their anger against us,

4. Then the waters had overflowed us, the stream passed over our soul,

5. Then proud waters had passed over our soul.

6. Blessed is YHWH who has not given us, as prey to their teeth.

7. Our soul has escaped as a bird from a snare of fowlers, the snare was broken, and we have escaped.

8. Our help is in the Name of YHWH, maker of the heavens and earth!
