Psalms 124

1 song [the] step to/for David unless LORD which/that to be to/for us to say please Israel

Uba kwakungesiNkosi eyayilathi, katsho-ke uIsrayeli;

2 unless LORD which/that to be to/for us in/on/with to arise: attack upon us man

uba kwakungesiNkosi eyayilathi, lapho abantu besivukela,

3 in that case alive to swallow up us in/on/with to be incensed face: anger their in/on/with us

ngabe basiginya siphila, ekuvutheni kolaka lwabo kithi;

4 in that case [the] water to overflow us torrent: river [to] to pass upon soul: myself our

ngabe amanzi agijima phezu kwethu, lempophoma yedlula phezu komphefumulo wethu;

5 in that case to pass upon soul: myself our [the] water [the] raging

ngabe amanzi aqubukayo edlula phezu komphefumulo wethu.

6 to bless LORD which/that not to give: give us prey to/for tooth their

Kayibongwe iNkosi, engasinikelanga ukuthi sibe yimpango emazinyweni abo.

7 soul: myself our like/as bird to escape from snare to snare [the] snare to break and we to escape

Umphefumulo wethu uphunyukile njengenyoni emjibileni wabathiyi; umjibila uqamukile, thina sasesiphunyuka.

8 helper our in/on/with name LORD to make heaven and land: country/planet

Usizo lwethu lusebizweni leNkosi eyenza amazulu lomhlaba.
