Psalms 124

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

A Song of degrees. Of David. If it had not been Jehovah who was for us — oh let Israel say —

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

If it had not been Jehovah who was for us, when men rose up against us,

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

Then they had swallowed us up alive, when their anger was kindled against us;

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

Then the waters had overwhelmed us, a torrent had gone over our soul;

5 Then it had passed over self our the waters raging.

Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

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

Blessed be Jehovah, who gave us not up a prey to their teeth!

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

Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we have escaped.

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

Our help is in the name of Jehovah, the maker of heavens and earth.
