< Psalms 124 >
1 If it had not been Jehovah who was on our side, let Israel now say,
[the] song of The ascents of David if not Yahweh who was for us let it say please Israel.
2 if it had not been Jehovah who was on our side when men rose up against us,
If not Yahweh who was for us when rose up on us anyone.
3 then they would have swallowed us up alive when their wrath was kindled against us,
Then alive they had swallowed up us when burned anger their on us.
4 then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul,
Then the waters they had overflowed us a torrent it had passed over self our.
5 then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.
Then it had passed over self our the waters raging.
6 Blessed be Jehovah, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
[be] blessed Yahweh who not he has given us prey to teeth their.
7 Our soul has escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
Self our like a bird it has escaped from a snare of fowlers the snare [has been] broken and we we have escaped.
8 Our help is in the name of Jehovah, who made heaven and earth.
Help our [is] in [the] name of Yahweh maker of heaven and earth.
