< भजनसंग्रह 124 >
1 अब इस्राएलले भनोस्, “परमप्रभु हाम्रो पक्षमा नहुनुभएको भए,
A Song of degrees of David. If [it had not been] the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;
2 मानिसहरू हाम्रा विरुद्धमा खडा हुँदा परमप्रभु हाम्रो पक्षमा नहुनुभएको भए,
If [it had not been] the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:
3 तब हाम्रा विरुद्धमा तिनीहरूका रिस दन्किंदा तिनीहरूले हामीलाई जिउँदै निल्नेथिए ।
Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:
4 पानीले हामीलाई बगाएर लानेथियो । पानीको भलले हामीलाई बगाउनेथियो ।
Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
5 तब उर्लंदो पानीले हामीलाई डुबाउनेथियो ।”
Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
6 परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा होस्, जसले हामीलाई तिनीहरूको दाँतले धुजाधुजा हुन दिनुभएको छैन ।
Blessed [be] the LORD, who hath not given us [as] a prey to their teeth.
7 शिकारीको पासोबाट चरा फुत्केझैं हामी भएका छौं । पासो चुँडेको छ र हामी उम्केका छौं ।
Our soul hath escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare [is] broken, and we have escaped.
8 परमप्रभु हाम्रो सहायता हुनुहुन्छ, जसले स्वर्ग र पृथ्वी बनाउनुभयो ।
Our help [is] in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
