Psalms 124

1 A song of ascents. Of David. If the LORD had not been on our side— let Israel now declare—

IJRAEL en inda: Ma Ieowa jota pan kotin ieian kit.

2 if the LORD had not been on our side when men attacked us,

Ma Ieowa jota pan kotin ieian kit, ni en aramaj akan ni palian kit.

3 when their anger flared against us, then they would have swallowed us alive,

Re pan katala kit ala ni at memaur, ni ar linaranar kin kit.

4 then the floods would have engulfed us, then the torrent would have overwhelmed us,

Pil akan ap pan kamop kit ala, pilap akan kadupwaledi nen it.

5 then the raging waters would have swept us away.

Pil akan itida melel lao kadupwaledi nen it.

6 Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as prey to their teeth.

Kapin on Ieowa, me jota mueid on, ni arail en ter kit pajan!

7 We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowler; the net is torn, and we have slipped away.

Nen it piti jan injar en jaun injar dueta manpir amen; injar ola, a kit pitila.

8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.

Jauaj pat iei mar en Ieowa, me kotin kapikadar lan o jappa.
