124:1 A song of ascents. By David: If Adonai hadn’t been for us — let Isra’el repeat it —
124:2 If Adonai hadn’t been for us when people rose to attack us,
124:3 then, when their anger blazed against us, they would have swallowed us alive!
124:4 Then the water would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over us.
124:5 Yes, the raging water would have swept right over us.
124:6 Blessed be Adonai, who did not leave us to be a prey for their teeth!
124:7 We escaped like a bird from the hunter’s trap; the trap is broken, and we have escaped.
124:8 Our help is in the name of Adonai, the maker of heaven and earth.
