124:1 <> If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, Let Israel now say,
124:2 If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, When men rose up against us;
124:3 Then they would have swallowed us up alive, When their wrath was kindled against us;
124:4 Then the waters would have overwhelmed us, The stream would have gone over our soul;
124:5 Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.
124:6 Blessed be Yahweh, Who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
124:7 Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
124:8 Our help is in the name of Yahweh, Who made heaven and earth.
