Psalms 124

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

Яко аще не Господь бы был в нас, да речет убо Израиль:

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

яко аще не Господь бы был в нас, внегда востати человеком на ны, убо живых пожерли быша нас:

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

внегда прогневатися ярости их на ны, убо вода потопила бы нас.

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

Поток прейде душа наша:

5 Yes, our soul would have gone under the overwhelming water.

убо прейде душа наша воду непостоянную.

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

Благословен Господь, иже не даде нас в ловитву зубом их.

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

Душа наша яко птица избавися от сети ловящих: сеть сокрушися, и мы избавлени быхом.

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

Помощь наша во имя Господа, сотворшаго небо и землю.
