Psalms 124

A Song of degrees of David.

1IfH3884 it had not been YhwhH3068 who was on our side, now may IsraelH3478 sayH559;

2IfH3884 it had not been YhwhH3068 who was on our side, when menH120 rose upH6965 against us:

3ThenH233 they had swallowed us upH1104 quickH2416, when their wrathH639 was kindledH2734 against us:

4ThenH233 the watersH4325 had overwhelmedH7857 us, the streamH5158 had gone overH5674 our soulH5315:

5ThenH233 the proudH2121 watersH4325 had gone overH5674 our soulH5315.

6BlessedH1288 be YhwhH3068, who hath not givenH5414 us as a preyH2964 to their teethH8127.

7Our soulH5315 is escapedH4422 as a birdH6833 out of the snareH6341 of the fowlersH3369: the snareH6341 is brokenH7665, and we are escapedH4422.

8Our helpH5828 is in the nameH8034 of YhwhH3068, who madeH6213 heavenH8064 and earthH776.
