Psalms 124

1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY DAVID. If YHWH had not been for us (Pray, let Israel say),

[the] song of The ascents of David if not Yahweh who was for us let it say please Israel.

2 If YHWH had not been for us, In the rising up of man against us,

If not Yahweh who was for us when rose up on us anyone.

3 Then they had swallowed us alive, In the burning of their anger against us,

Then alive they had swallowed up us when burned anger their on us.

4 Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over our soul,

Then the waters they had overflowed us a torrent it had passed over self our.

5 Then proud waters had passed over our soul.

Then it had passed over self our the waters raging.

6 Blessed [is] YHWH who has not given us, [As] prey to their teeth.

[be] blessed Yahweh who not he has given us prey to teeth their.

7 Our soul has escaped as a bird from a snare of fowlers, The snare was broken, and we have escaped.

Self our like a bird it has escaped from a snare of fowlers the snare [has been] broken and we we have escaped.

8 Our help [is] in the Name of YHWH, Maker of the heavens and earth!

Help our [is] in [the] name of Yahweh maker of heaven and earth.
