< Psalms 124 >
1 [A Song of Ascents. By David.] If it had not been YHWH who was on our side, let Israel now say,
Haddaan Rabbigu inala jirin Hadda reer binu Israa'iil ha yidhaahdeen,
2 if it had not been YHWH who was on our side, when men rose up against us;
Haddaan Rabbigu inala jirin, Markii dadku inagu kacay,
3 then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;
Kolkaasay innagoo noolnool ina wada liqliqi lahaayeen, Markay aad inoogu cadhoodeen,
4 then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul;
Kolkaasay biyuhu ina qarqin lahaayeen, Durdurna nafteennuu dul mari lahaa,
5 then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.
Oo kolkaasay biyaha kibirsanu nafteenna dul mari lahaayeen.
6 Blessed be YHWH, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
Waxaa mahad leh Rabbiga Aan inaga dhigin ugaadh ilkahoodu ay qabsadaan.
7 Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
Nafteennu waxay u baxsatay sida shimbir uga baxsato dabinka shimbirrodabtaha, Dabinkii wuu go'ay, innaguna waynu baxsannay.
8 Our help is in the name of YHWH, who made heaven and earth.
Caawimaaddeennu waxay ku jirtaa magaca Rabbiga Sameeyey samada iyo dhulkaba.
