< Psalms 124 >

1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY DAVID. If YHWH had not been for us (Pray, let Israel say),
Wer ma ji wero kadhi e hekalu. Mar Daudi. Ka dine bed ni Jehova Nyasaye ok jakorwa, jo-Israel mondo owach kamano,
2 If YHWH had not been for us, In the rising up of man against us,
ka dine bed ni Jehova Nyasaye ok jakorwa kane ji omonjowa,
3 Then they had swallowed us alive, In the burning of their anger against us,
e kinde mane mirima mabebni ka mach omakogi kodwa, to dine gimwonyowa ngili;
4 Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over our soul,
ataro dine odinonwa, ee, kodh yamo dine oywerowa,
5 Then proud waters had passed over our soul.
kendo pi maringo matek dine odhi kodwa.
6 Blessed [is] YHWH who has not given us, [As] prey to their teeth.
Pak mondo odogne Jehova Nyasaye, ma ok oseyie mondo gikidhwa gi lekegi.
7 Our soul has escaped as a bird from a snare of fowlers, The snare was broken, and we have escaped.
Wasetony mana ka winyo mowuok e wino mar jachik winy; wino osechodi, to wan wasetony.
8 Our help [is] in the Name of YHWH, Maker of the heavens and earth!
Konyruokwa ni e nying Jehova Nyasaye, Jachwech polo gi piny.
