< Psalms 124 >
1 You Israeli [people], [answer this question]: What [would have happened to us] if Yahweh had not been (helping/fighting for) us?
Hina Gode da ninimagale hame fidisu ganiaba, ninia da adi hamona: nobela: ? Isala: ili fi! Dabe adole ima!
2 When [our enemies] attacked us, if Yahweh had not been fighting for us,
Nini ha lai dunu da ninima doagala: beba: le, Hina Gode da ninimagale hame gegei ganiaba, ninia ha lai dunu da ougi bagadeba: le, nini esalumuna: wane mogo sala: loba.
3 we would have all been killed [IDM] because they were very angry with us!
4 [They would have been like] [MET] a flood that swept/carried us away; [it would have been as though] the water would have covered us,
Amola hano fili gala: le, nini mini ahoa: noba amola hano da nini dedebola: loba, nini da mogososone gela da: loba.
5 and we would [all] have drowned in the flood that was (raging/flowing very fast).
6 [But] praise Yahweh, because he has not allowed our [enemies to destroy us] [like wild animals] [MET] tear apart [the creatures that they capture].
Hina Gode da ninima ha lai dunuga nini gugunufinisisa: besa: le, Ilia logo hedofaiba: le, Ema nodomu da defea.
7 We have escaped [from our enemies] like a bird escapes from the trap that hunters have set; [it is as though] the trap [that our enemies set for us] was broken and we have escaped from it!
Ninia da sio sanisu dunu ea sani amoga dasa: besa: le hobeasa, amo defele ninia hobea: i. Sani da gadelale sa: iba: le, ninia da halegale lala.
8 Yahweh is the one who helps us [MTY]; he is the one who made heaven and the earth.
Nini fidisu da Hina Gode, mu amola osobo bagade hahamosu dunu, Emadini maha.
