1 Psalm 124 Yahweh Was on Our Side A Song of Ascents. Of David.“Had it not been Yahweh who was on our side,”Let Israel now say,2 “Had it not been Yahweh who was on our sideWhen men rose up against us,3 Then they would have swallowed us alive,When their anger was kindled against us;4 Then the waters would have flowed over us,The stream would have 124:4Or passed over swept over our soul;5 Then the raging waters would have 124:5Or passed over swept over our soul.”6 ¶Blessed be Yahweh,Who has not given us to be prey for their teeth.7 Our soul has escaped as a bird out of the snare of the trapper;The snare is broken and we have escaped.8 Our help is in the name of Yahweh,Who made heaven and earth.
