Psalms 124 Geneva Bible 1599

From Textus Receptus

1 A song of degrees, or Psalme of David. If the Lord had not bene on our side, (may Israel now say) 2 If the Lord had not bene on our side, when men rose vp against vs, 3 They had then swallowed vs vp quicke, when their wrath was kindled against vs. 4 Then the waters had drowned vs, and the streame had gone ouer our soule: 5 Then had the swelling waters gone ouer our soule. 6 Praysed be the Lord, which hath not giuen vs as a praye vnto their teeth. 7 Our soule is escaped, euen as a bird out of the snare of the foulers: the snare is broken, and we are deliuered. 8 Our helpe is in the Name of the Lord, which hath made heauen and earth.
