Tehillim 124:1-6 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. If it had not been Hashem Who was lanu (for us, on our side), now may Yisroel say;

2. If it had not been Hashem Who was lanu, when adam (man) rose up against us;

3. Then they had swallowed us up chayyim (alive); when their wrath was kindled against us;

4. Then the mayim would have overwhelmed us, the torrent would have swept over nafsheinu (our nefesh);

5. Then the mayim hazedonim (treacherous waters) would have swept over nafsheinu (our nefesh).

6. Baruch Hashem, Who hath not given us up as a prey to their shinayim (teeth).
