Psalms 124

1 A Song of Ascents. David’s. If it had not been, Yahweh, who was on our side, oh might Israel say:

“Kung wala si Yahweh sa ating panig,” hayaang sabihin ng Israel ngayon,

2 If it had not been, Yahweh, who was on our side, when men rose up against us,

“kung hindi si Yahweh ang nasa ating panig nang lumusob ang mga tao laban sa atin,

3 Then, alive, had they swallowed us up, in the glow of their anger against us;

tiyak lalamunin nila tayo ng buhay nang sumiklab ang kanilang matinding galit laban sa atin.

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

Tatangayin tayo ng tubig; lalamunin tayo ng malakas na agos ng tubig.

5 Then, had gone over our soul the waters so proud!

Pagkatapos lulunurin tayo ng rumaragasang tubig.”

6 Blessed, be Yahweh, who gave us not as prey to their teeth.

Purihin si Yahweh, siyang hindi nagpahintulot na magutay-gutay tayo sa pamamagitan ng kanilang mga ngipin.

7 Our soul, as a bird, hath escaped from the snare of the fowlers, The snare, is broken, and, we, are escaped:

Nakatakas tayo tulad ng isang ibon mula sa patibong ng mga manghuhuli; ang patibong ay nasira at tayo ay nakatakas.

8 Our help, is in the Name of Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.

Ang ating saklolo ay na kay Yahweh, na siyang gumawa ng langit at lupa.
