תהילים 124

1 שִׁיר הַֽמַּעֲלוֹת לְדָוִד לוּלֵי יְהֹוָה שֶׁהָיָה לָנוּ יֹאמַר־נָא יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

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

2 לוּלֵי יְהֹוָה שֶׁהָיָה לָנוּ בְּקוּם עָלֵינוּ אָדָֽם׃

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

3 אֲזַי חַיִּים בְּלָעוּנוּ בַּחֲרוֹת אַפָּם בָּֽנוּ׃

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

4 אֲזַי הַמַּיִם שְׁטָפוּנוּ נַחְלָה עָבַר עַל־נַפְשֵֽׁנוּ׃

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

5 אֲזַי עָבַר עַל־נַפְשֵׁנוּ הַמַּיִם הַזֵּידוֹנִֽים׃

Then passed over our soul had the proud waters.

6 בָּרוּךְ יְהֹוָה שֶׁלֹּא נְתָנָנוּ טֶרֶף לְשִׁנֵּיהֶֽם׃

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

7 נַפְשֵׁנוּ כְּצִפּוֹר נִמְלְטָה מִפַּח יוֹקְשִׁים הַפַּח נִשְׁבָּר וַאֲנַחְנוּ נִמְלָֽטְנוּ׃

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

8 עֶזְרֵנוּ בְּשֵׁם יְהֹוָה עֹשֵׂה שָׁמַיִם וָאָֽרֶץ׃

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