Psalms 124

"

If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men rose up against us:

"
"

Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:

"
"

Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:

"
"

Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

"
"

Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

"
"

Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

"
"

Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

"
