Psalm 124

Psalm 123 Psalm 125

Psalm 124 Easy-to-Read Version (ERV)

A song of David for going up to the Temple.

124 What would have happened to us if the Lord had not been on our side?
    Tell us about it, Israel.
²What would have happened to us if the Lord had not been on our side
    when people attacked us?
³They would have swallowed us alive
    when they became angry with us.
⁴Their armies would have been
    like a flood washing over us,
    like a river drowning us.
⁵Those proud people would have been
    like water rising up to our mouth and drowning us.

⁶Praise the Lord!
He did not let our enemies tear us apart.

⁷We escaped like a bird from the net of a hunter.
The net broke, and we escaped!
⁸Our help came from the Lord,
the one who made heaven and earth!
