< Psalms 124 >

1 [A Song of Ascents. By David.] If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, let Israel now say,
Če ne bi bil Gospod, ki je bil na naši strani, lahko sedaj reče Izrael,
2 if it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us;
če ne bi bil Gospod, ki je bil na naši strani, ko so ljudje vstali zoper nas,
3 then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;
tedaj [bi] nas žive požrli, ko je bil njihov bes vžgan zoper nas,
4 then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul;
tedaj [bi] nas vode preplavile, vodni tok [bi] tekel preko naše duše,
5 then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.
tedaj [bi] vode ponosa tekle preko naše duše.
6 Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
Blagoslovljen [bodi] Gospod, ki nas ni izročil njihovim zobem kakor plen.
7 Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
Naša duša je kakor ptica ušla iz zanke ptičarjev; zanka je pretrgana in mi smo ušli.
8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
Naša pomoč je v imenu Gospodovem, ki je naredil nebo in zemljo.
