Psalms 124

1 A song of ascents; of David. “If Yahweh had not been on our side,” let Israel say now,

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

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

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

3 then they would have swallowed us up alive when their anger raged against us.

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

4 The water would have swept us away; the torrent would have overwhelmed us.

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

5 Then the raging waters would have drowned us.”

Then it had passed over self our the waters raging.

6 Blessed be Yahweh, who has not allowed us to be torn by their teeth.

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

7 We have escaped like a bird out of the snare of the fowlers; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped.

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

8 Our help is in Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.

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