< Psalms 124 >
1 A song of ascents; of David. “If Yahweh had not been on our side,” let Israel say now,
IJRAEL en inda: Ma Ieowa jota pan kotin ieian kit.
2 “if it had not been Yahweh who was on our side when men rose up against us,
Ma Ieowa jota pan kotin ieian kit, ni en aramaj akan ni palian kit.
3 then they would have swallowed us up alive when their anger raged against us.
Re pan katala kit ala ni at memaur, ni ar linaranar kin kit.
4 The water would have swept us away; the torrent would have overwhelmed us.
Pil akan ap pan kamop kit ala, pilap akan kadupwaledi nen it.
5 Then the raging waters would have drowned us.”
Pil akan itida melel lao kadupwaledi nen it.
6 Blessed be Yahweh, who has not allowed us to be torn by their teeth.
Kapin on Ieowa, me jota mueid on, ni arail en ter kit pajan!
7 We have escaped like a bird out of the snare of the fowlers; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped.
Nen it piti jan injar en jaun injar dueta manpir amen; injar ola, a kit pitila.
8 Our help is in Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
Jauaj pat iei mar en Ieowa, me kotin kapikadar lan o jappa.
