Psa 124:1
A Song of Ascents. Of David.
“Had it not been H1961 Yahweh H3068 who H7945 was on our side,”
Let Israel H3478 now H4994 say H559,
Psa 124:2
“Had it not been H1961 Yahweh H3068 who H7945 was on our side
When men H120 rose H6965 up H6965 against H5921 us,
Psa 124:3
Then H233 they would have swallowed H1104 us alive H2416,
When their anger H639 was kindled H2734 against us;
Psa 124:4
Then H233 the waters H4325 would have flowed H7857 over H7857 us,
The stream H5158 would have [fn]swept H5674 over H5921 our soul H5315;
Psa 124:5
Then H233 the raging H2121 waters H4325 would have [fn]swept H5674 over H5921 our soul H5315.”
Psa 124:6
Blessed H1288 be Yahweh H3068,
Who H7945 has not given H5414 us to be prey H2964 for their teeth H8127.
Psa 124:7
Our soul H5315 has escaped H4422 as a bird H6833 out of the snare H6341 of the trapper H3369;
The snare H6341 is broken H7665 and we have escaped H4422.
Psa 124:8
Our help H5828 is in the name H8034 of Yahweh H3068,
Who made H6213 heaven H8064 and earth H776.
