Salmos 124

¹ A Song of Ascents. By David.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 men rose up against us;

³ then they would have swallowed us up alive,when their wrath was kindled against us;

⁴ then the waters would have overwhelmed us,the stream would have gone over our soul;

⁵ then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.

⁶ Blessed be the Lord,who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

⁷ Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare.The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

⁸ Our help is in the name of the Lord,who made heaven and earth.
