1“A song of the degrees by David.” If it had not been the Lord who was for us, so should Israel say;
2If it had not been the Lord who was for us, when men rose up against us:
3Then would they have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;
4Then would the waters have overwhelmed us, the stream would have passed over our soul;
5Then would have passed over our soul the presumptuous waters.
Psalms 124
Psalms 124:1-5
