Psalms 124

1 A Song of Ascents. By David. If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, let Israel now say,

Да није био Господ с нама, нека рече Израиљ,

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

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

3 then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us,

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

4 then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul.

Потопила би нас вода, река би покрила душу нашу;

5 Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.

Покрила би душу нашу силна вода.

6 Blessed be Yahweh, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

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

7 Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

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

8 Our help is in Yahweh’s name, who made heaven and earth.

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