Psalm 124 :: Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

The LORD Is on Our Side

A song of ascents. Of David.

¶

If the LORD had not been on our side —

let Israel say —

¶

if the LORD had not been on our side

when people attacked us,

¶

then they would have swallowed us alive

in their burning anger against us.

¶

Then the water would have engulfed us;

the torrent would have swept over us;

¶

the raging water would have swept over us.

¶

Blessed be the LORD,

who has not let us be ripped apart by their teeth.

¶

We have escaped like a bird from the hunter’s net;

the net is torn, and we have escaped.

¶

Our help is in the name of the LORD,

the Maker of heaven and earth.
