Psalms 124
Easy-to-Read Version, 2006
- 1What 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!
