Psalms 124

1 A Song of the Ascents, by David. Save [for] Jehovah — who hath been for us, (Pray, let Israel say),

大衛上行之詩。 以色列人要說： 若不是耶和華幫助我們，

2 Save [for] Jehovah — who hath been for us, In the rising up of man against us,

若不是耶和華幫助我們， 當人起來攻擊我們、

3 Then alive they had swallowed us up, In the burning of their anger against us,

向我們發怒的時候， 就把我們活活地吞了。

4 Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over our soul,

那時，波濤必漫過我們， 河水必淹沒我們，

5 Then passed over our soul had the proud waters.

狂傲的水必淹沒我們。

6 Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath not given us, A prey to their teeth.

耶和華是應當稱頌的！ 他沒有把我們當野食交給他們吞吃。

7 Our soul as a bird hath escaped from a snare of fowlers, The snare was broken, and we have escaped.

我們好像雀鳥，從捕鳥人的網羅裏逃脫； 網羅破裂，我們逃脫了。

8 Our help [is] in the name of Jehovah, Maker of the heavens and earth!

我們得幫助， 是在乎倚靠造天地之耶和華的名。
