Psalms 124

1 A Canticle in steps. If the Lord had not been with us, let Israel now say it:

अब इस्राएलले भनोस्, “परमप्रभु हाम्रो पक्षमा नहुनुभएको भए,

2 if the Lord had not been with us, when men rose up against us,

मानिसहरू हाम्रा विरुद्धमा खडा हुँदा परमप्रभु हाम्रो पक्षमा नहुनुभएको भए,

3 perhaps they would have swallowed us alive. When their fury was enraged against us,

तब हाम्रा विरुद्धमा तिनीहरूका रिस दन्किंदा तिनीहरूले हामीलाई जिउँदै निल्नेथिए ।

4 perhaps the waters would have engulfed us.

पानीले हामीलाई बगाएर लानेथियो । पानीको भलले हामीलाई बगाउनेथियो ।

5 Our soul has passed through a torrent. Perhaps, our soul had even passed through intolerable water.

तब उर्लंदो पानीले हामीलाई डुबाउनेथियो ।”

6 Blessed is the Lord, who has not given us into the harm of their teeth.

परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा होस्, जसले हामीलाई तिनीहरूको दाँतले धुजाधुजा हुन दिनुभएको छैन ।

7 Our soul has been snatched away like a sparrow from the snare of the hunters. The snare has been broken, and we have been freed.

शिकारीको पासोबाट चरा फुत्‍केझैं हामी भएका छौं । पासो चुँडेको छ र हामी उम्केका छौं ।

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

परमप्रभु हाम्रो सहायता हुनुहुन्छ, जसले स्वर्ग र पृथ्वी बनाउनुभयो ।
