Psalms 124

1 The song of grecis `of Dauith. Israel seie now, No but for the Lord was in vs;

若不是上主保佑我們，唯願以色列子民再說：

2 no but for `the Lord was in vs. Whanne men risiden vp ayens vs;

若不是上主保佑我們，當世人起來攻擊我們，

3 in hap thei hadden swalewid vs quike. Whanne the woodnesse of hem was wrooth ayens vs;

並向我們發洩怒火時，必會活活將我們舌食。

4 in hap watir hadde sope vs vp.

就像淹沒我們的水禍，流過我們頭頸的洪波。

5 Oure soule passide thoruy a stronde; in hap oure soule hadde passide thoruy a watir vnsuffrable.

又像洶湧澎湃的狂浪，早已將我們淹沒滅亡。

6 Blessid be the Lord; that `yaf not vs in taking to the teeth of hem.

讚美上主，他沒有將我們拋出，使我們做成他爪牙的獵物；

7 Oure soule, as a sparowe, is delyuered; fro the snare of hunters. The snare is al to-brokun; and we ben delyuered.

我們像掙脫獵人羅網的小鳥，羅網扯破了，我們自然逃掉。

8 Oure helpe is in the name of the Lord; that made heuene and erthe.

我們的救助是仰賴上主的名，上天和下地都是由他所造成。
