Psalms 124

1 A Song of Ascents. David’s. If it had not been, Yahweh, who was on our side, oh might Israel say:

Haddaan Rabbigu inala jirin Hadda reer binu Israa'iil ha yidhaahdeen,

2 If it had not been, Yahweh, who was on our side, when men rose up against us,

Haddaan Rabbigu inala jirin, Markii dadku inagu kacay,

3 Then, alive, had they swallowed us up, in the glow of their anger against us;

Kolkaasay innagoo noolnool ina wada liqliqi lahaayeen, Markay aad inoogu cadhoodeen,

4 Then, the waters, had whelmed us, the torrent, gone over our soul;

Kolkaasay biyuhu ina qarqin lahaayeen, Durdurna nafteennuu dul mari lahaa,

5 Then, had gone over our soul the waters so proud!

Oo kolkaasay biyaha kibirsanu nafteenna dul mari lahaayeen.

6 Blessed, be Yahweh, who gave us not as prey to their teeth.

Waxaa mahad leh Rabbiga Aan inaga dhigin ugaadh ilkahoodu ay qabsadaan.

7 Our soul, as a bird, hath escaped from the snare of the fowlers, The snare, is broken, and, we, are 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 Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.

Caawimaaddeennu waxay ku jirtaa magaca Rabbiga Sameeyey samada iyo dhulkaba.
