اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 124

١ 1 تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ. لِدَاوُدَ «لَوْلَا ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ لَنَا». لِيَقُلْ إِسْرَائِيلُ:

A song of degrees, or Psalme of David. If the Lord had not bene on our side, (may Israel now say)

٢ 2 «لَوْلَا ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ لَنَا عِنْدَ مَا قَامَ ٱلنَّاسُ عَلَيْنَا،

If the Lord had not bene on our side, when men rose vp against vs,

٣ 3 إِذًا لَٱبْتَلَعُونَا أَحْيَاءً عِنْدَ ٱحْتِمَاءِ غَضَبِهِمْ عَلَيْنَا،

They had then swallowed vs vp quicke, when their wrath was kindled against vs.

٤ 4 إِذًا لَجَرَفَتْنَا ٱلْمِيَاهُ، لَعَبَرَ ٱلسَّيْلُ عَلَى أَنْفُسِنَا.

Then the waters had drowned vs, and the streame had gone ouer our soule:

٥ 5 إِذًا لَعَبَرَتْ عَلَى أَنْفُسِنَا ٱلْمِيَاهُ ٱلطَّامِيَةُ».

Then had the swelling waters gone ouer our soule.

٦ 6 مُبَارَكٌ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي لَمْ يُسْلِمْنَا فَرِيسَةً لِأَسْنَانِهِمْ.

Praysed be the Lord, which hath not giuen vs as a praye vnto their teeth.

٧ 7 ٱنْفَلَتَتْ أَنْفُسُنَا مِثْلَ ٱلْعُصْفُورِ مِنْ فَخِّ ٱلصَّيَّادِينَ. ٱلْفَخُّ ٱنْكَسَرَ، وَنَحْنُ ٱنْفَلَتْنَا.

Our soule is escaped, euen as a bird out of the snare of the foulers: the snare is broken, and we are deliuered.

٨ 8 عَوْنُنَا بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ، ٱلصَّانِعِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ.

Our helpe is in the Name of the Lord, which hath made heauen and earth.
