Psalm 124:1-8 GW

[1] "If the LORD had not been on our side. . ." (Israel should repeat this.) [2] "If the LORD had not been on our side when people attacked us, [3] then they would have swallowed us alive when their anger exploded against us. [4] Then the floodwaters would have swept us away. An overflowing stream would have washed us away. [5] Then raging water would have washed us away." [6] Thank the LORD, who did not let them sink their teeth into us. [7] We escaped like a bird caught in a hunter's trap. The trap was broken, and we escaped. [8] Our help is in the name of the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth.
