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 Ascents. By David.] If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, let Israel now say,

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

if it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us;

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

then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;

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

then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul;

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

then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.

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

Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as 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 has escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare. 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 the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
