Psalm 124 - Julia E. Smith Translation 1876

¹ Song of ascensions to David. Unless Jehovah was to us, now shall Israel say,

² Unless Jehovah was to us in the rising up of man against us,

³ Then they swallowed us down living, in the kindling of their anger against us:

⁴ Then the waters overflowed us, the torrent passed over our soul:

⁵ Then the swelling waters passed over our soul.

⁶ Blessed be Jehovah, who gave us not a prey to their teeth.

⁷ Our soul as a sparrow was delivered from the snare of the fowlers: the snare was broken and we were delivered.

⁸ Our help is in the name of Jehovah.; he made the heavens and the earth.
