Psalmi 124

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

A Song of Degrees. If it had not been that the Lord was among us, let Israel now say;

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

if it had not been that the Lord was among us, when men rose up against us;

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

verily they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us:

4 voda bi nas podavila; bujica bi nas odnijela,

verily the water would have drowned us, our soul would have gone under the torrent.

5 vode pobješnjele sve nas potopile.

Yea, our soul would have gone under the overwhelming water.

6 Blagoslovljen Jahve koji nas ne dade za plijen zubima njihovim!

Blessed be the Lord, who has not given us for a prey to their teeth.

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

Our soul has been delivered as a sparrow from the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are delivered.

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

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