Psalms 124

1 A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. A psalm of David. If the Lord hadn't been for us, what would have happened? Let everyone in Israel say:

Hodočasnička pjesma. Davidova. Da nije Jahve za nas bio - neka slobodno rekne Izrael -

2 If the Lord hadn't been for us, what would have happened when people came and attacked us?

da nije Jahve za nas bio: kad se ljudi digoše proti nama,

3 They would have swallowed us alive when their anger raged against us.

žive bi nas progutali. Kad je uskipio bijes njihov na nas,

4 Like a flood they would have swept over us; like a rushing torrent they would have submerged us.

voda bi nas podavila; bujica bi nas odnijela,

5 They would have rushed over us like raging waters, drowning us.

vode pobješnjele sve nas potopile.

6 Praise the Lord, who didn't hand us over to them as prey to be ripped apart by their teeth.

Blagoslovljen Jahve koji nas ne dade za plijen zubima njihovim!

7 We escaped from them like a bird flying out of a hunter's trap. The trap was broken and we flew away!

Duša je naša poput ptice umakla iz zamke lovaca: raskinula se zamka, a mi umakosmo!

8 Our help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Pomoć je naša u imenu Jahve koji stvori nebo i zemlju.
