A Song of Ascents. Of David.

124 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side—
let Israel now say—
2
if it had not been the Lord who was on our side
when people rose up against us,
3
then they would have swallowed us up alive,
when their anger was kindled against us;
4
then the flood would have swept us away,
the torrent would have gone over us;
5
then over us would have gone
the raging waters.
