Psalms 124

1 A song of degrees, or Psalme of David. If the Lord had not bene on our side, (may Israel now say)

Fihirana fiakarana. Nataon’ i Davida.

2 If the Lord had not bene on our side, when men rose vp against vs,

Raha tsy Jehovah no nomba antsika, Raha nitsangana hamely antsika ny olona.

3 They had then swallowed vs vp quicke, when their wrath was kindled against vs.

Dia nitelina antsika velona izy, Raha nirehitra tamintsika ny fahatezerany;

4 Then the waters had drowned vs, and the streame had gone ouer our soule:

Dia nandifotra antsika ny rano, Ary nanafotra ny fanahintsika ny riaka;

5 Then had the swelling waters gone ouer our soule.

Eny, nanafotra ny fanahintsika Ny rano misafoaka.

6 Praysed be the Lord, which hath not giuen vs as a praye vnto their teeth.

Isaorana anie Jehovah, Izay tsy nanolotra antsika ho rembin’ ny nifiny.

7 Our soule is escaped, euen as a bird out of the snare of the foulers: the snare is broken, and we are deliuered.

Ny fanahintsika dia efa afaka tahaka ny vorona afaka tamin’ ny fandriky ny mpihaza: Tapaka ny fandrika, ka afaka isika.

8 Our helpe is in the Name of the Lord, which hath made heauen and earth.

Ny famonjena antsika dia amin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, Mpanao ny lanitra sy ny tany.
