< Psalms 124 >
1 A Song of Ascents. By David. If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, let Israel now say,
Да није био Господ с нама, нека рече Израиљ,
2 if it had not been the LORD 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 the LORD, 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 the LORD’s name, who made heaven and earth.
Помоћ је наша у имену Господњем, који је створио небо и земљу.
