Psalms 124

Verse 1

"A Song of degrees of David." If [it had not been] the LORD who was a on our side, now may Israel say;

(a) He shows that God was ready to help at need and that there was no other way to be saved, but by this means alone.


Verse 3

Then they had swallowed us up b quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:

(b) So unable were we to resist.


Verse 4

Then the c waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:

(c) He uses proper similitudes to express the great danger that the Church was in, and out of which God miraculously delivered them.


Verse 7

Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the d snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

(d) For the wicked not only furiously rage against the faithful, but craftily imagined to destroy them.
