Psalms 124

1 If it had not been that the Lord was with us, let Israel now say:

Да није био Господ с нама, нека рече Израиљ,

2 If it had not been that the Lord was with us, When men rose up against us,

Да није био Господ с нама, кад људи усташе на нас,

3 Perhaps they had swallowed us up alive. When their fury was enkindled against us,

Живе би нас прождрли, кад се распали гнев њихов на нас;

4 Perhaps the waters had swallowed us up.

Потопила би нас вода, река би покрила душу нашу;

5 Our soul hath passed through a torrent: perhaps our soul had passed through a water insupportable.

Покрила би душу нашу силна вода.

6 Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us to be a prey to their teeth.

Благословен Господ, који нас не даде зубима њиховим да нас растржу!

7 Our soul hath been delivered as a sparrow out of the snare of the followers. The snare is broken, and we are delivered.

Душа се наша избави као птица из замке ловачке; замка се раскиде, и ми се избависмо.

8 Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Помоћ је наша у имену Господњем, који је створио небо и земљу.
