Psalms 124

1 A Song of the going up. Of David. If it had not been the Lord who was on our side (let Israel now say);

Hodočasnička pjesma. Davidova. Da nije Jahve za nas bio - neka slobodno rekne Izrael -

2 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men came up against us;

da nije Jahve za nas bio: kad se ljudi digoše proti nama,

3 They would have made a meal of us while still living, in the heat of their wrath against us:

žive bi nas progutali. Kad je uskipio bijes njihov na nas,

4 We would have been covered by the waters; the streams would have gone over our soul;

voda bi nas podavila; bujica bi nas odnijela,

5 Yes, the waters of pride would have gone over our soul.

vode pobješnjele sve nas potopile.

6 Praise be to the Lord, who has not let us be wounded by their teeth.

Blagoslovljen Jahve koji nas ne dade za plijen zubima njihovim!

7 Our soul has gone free like a bird out of the net of those who would take her: the net is broken, and we are free.

Duša je naša poput ptice umakla iz zamke lovaca: raskinula se zamka, a mi umakosmo!

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

Pomoć je naša u imenu Jahve koji stvori nebo i zemlju.
