< Dagiti Salmo 124 >

1 “No saan a ni Yahweh ti kaduatayo,” ibaga koma ti Israel ita,
You Israeli [people], [answer this question]: What [would have happened to us] if Yahweh had not been (helping/fighting for) us?
2 “a no saan a ni Yahweh ti kaduatayo idi dimmarup dagiti tattao kadatayo,
When [our enemies] attacked us, if Yahweh had not been fighting for us,
3 malabit nga inalun-ondatayo koman a sibibiag idi nakapungtotda kadatayo.
we would have all been killed [IDM] because they were very angry with us!
4 Inyanudnatayo koman ti danum; linipusnatayo koman iti napigsa nga ayus.
[They would have been like] [MET] a flood that swept/carried us away; [it would have been as though] the water would have covered us,
5 Ket linimmesnatayo koman ti nadawel a danum.”
and we would [all] have drowned in the flood that was (raging/flowing very fast).
6 Madaydayaw ni Yahweh, a saan a nangitulok a marangrangkaytayo babaen kadagiti ngipenda.
[But] praise Yahweh, because he has not allowed our [enemies to destroy us] [like wild animals] [MET] tear apart [the creatures that they capture].
7 Nakalibastayo a kas iti billit manipud iti silo dagiti mangnganup; nadadael ti silo, ket nakalibastayo.
We have escaped [from our enemies] like a bird escapes from the trap that hunters have set; [it is as though] the trap [that our enemies set for us] was broken and we have escaped from it!
8 Aggapu kenni Yahweh ti tulongtayo, isu a nangaramid iti langit ken daga.
Yahweh is the one who helps us [MTY]; he is the one who made heaven and the earth.
