Psalms 124

1 A Song of degrees. Of David. If it had not been Jehovah who was for us — oh let Israel say —

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

2 If it had not been Jehovah who was for us, when men rose up against us,

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

3 Then they had swallowed us up alive, when their anger was kindled against us;

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

4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, a torrent had gone over our soul;

voda bi nas podavila; bujica bi nas odnijela,

5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

vode pobješnjele sve nas potopile.

6 Blessed be Jehovah, who gave us not up a prey to their teeth!

Blagoslovljen Jahve koji nas ne dade za plijen zubima njihovim!

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

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

8 Our help is in the name of Jehovah, the maker of heavens and earth.

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