Psalm 124:1-8 (King James Version)

Psalm 124

 ¹If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;

 ²If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:

 ³Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:

 ⁴Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:

 ⁵Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

 ⁶Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

 ⁷Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

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