< Psalms 124 >

1 A song of ascents. Of David. If the LORD had not been on our side— let Israel now declare—
“Kung wala si Yahweh sa ating panig,” hayaang sabihin ng Israel ngayon,
2 if the LORD had not been on our side when men attacked us,
“kung hindi si Yahweh ang nasa ating panig nang lumusob ang mga tao laban sa atin,
3 when their anger flared against us, then they would have swallowed us alive,
tiyak lalamunin nila tayo ng buhay nang sumiklab ang kanilang matinding galit laban sa atin.
4 then the floods would have engulfed us, then the torrent would have overwhelmed us,
Tatangayin tayo ng tubig; lalamunin tayo ng malakas na agos ng tubig.
5 then the raging waters would have swept us away.
Pagkatapos lulunurin tayo ng rumaragasang tubig.”
6 Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as prey to their teeth.
Purihin si Yahweh, siyang hindi nagpahintulot na magutay-gutay tayo sa pamamagitan ng kanilang mga ngipin.
7 We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowler; the net is torn, and we have slipped away.
Nakatakas tayo tulad ng isang ibon mula sa patibong ng mga manghuhuli; ang patibong ay nasira at tayo ay nakatakas.
8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
Ang ating saklolo ay na kay Yahweh, na siyang gumawa ng langit at lupa.
