American Standard Version
"Then they had swallowed us up alive, When their wrath was kindled against us: "
— Psalms 124:3, American Standard Version
“Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:”
“then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;”
“they would have swallowed us alive, when their anger raged against us.”
“For the Lord will not leave the rod of sinners upon the lot of the just: that the just may not stretch forth their hands to iniquity.”
“They would have made a meal of us while still living, in the heat of their wrath against us:”
“Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:”
If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side, Let Israel now say,
If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side, When men rose up against us;
Then they had swallowed us up alive, When their wrath was kindled against us:
Then the waters had overwhelmed us, The stream had gone over our soul;
Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
Blessed be Jehovah, Who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
