Psalm 124:2-3, 4-5, 7b-8
Chapter 124
2
had not the Lord been on our side, when people rose up against us,
3
then, they would have swallowed us alive; such was their anger against us.
4
A bit more, and the flood would have engulfed us; the torrent would have swept over us;
5
the raging waters would have swept us away.
7
Like a bird, our soul escaped from the snare of the fowler; the snare was broken and we were freed.
8
Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
