Sams-Zgame 124

1 Maka Israeli vahe'mota amanage huta hiho. Ra Anumzamo'ma tagri kazigama omani'neresina, inankna hugahie?

A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. A psalm of David. If the Lord hadn't been for us, what would have happened? Let everyone in Israel say:

2 Ra Anumzamo'ma tagranema omani'nesige'zama ha' vahetimo'zama ha'ma eme hurantesnazana inankna hugahie?

If the Lord hadn't been for us, what would have happened when people came and attacked us?

3 Ha' vahetimo'zama tusi zamarimpama aherante'naresina, ko e'za magozagama asgahu nakriankna hu'za tagrira eme tavuaga tasgahu nakrizasine.

They would have swallowed us alive when their anger raged against us.

4 Tagrira timo hageno eme tavreno nevigeno, timo tazeri nakariresine.

Like a flood they would have swept over us; like a rushing torrent they would have submerged us.

5 Tusi avunema anteno hageno nea timo, tagrira eme tavreno vu'neresine.

They would have rushed over us like raging waters, drowning us.

6 Ra Anumzamofona humuse huntesanune. Na'ankure agra tatrege'za afi zagamo'zama zagagafama ahe'za tragama nehazaza hu'za, ha' vahe'mo'za eme tahe'za traga osu'naze.

Praise the Lord, who didn't hand us over to them as prey to be ripped apart by their teeth.

7 Krifuma anagintegeno azeri'nea namamo'a rugraru'vazino freaza huta, tazeri'nea nofimo'a rukano higeta atreta fre'none.

We escaped from them like a bird flying out of a hunter's trap. The trap was broken and we flew away!

8 Ra Anumzama monane mopane tro'ma hu'nea Anumzamo tagrira taza nehie.

Our help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
