Psalmi 124

1 Da nije bio Gospod s nama, neka reèe Izrailj,

A Song of Ascents. By David. If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, let Israel now say,

2 Da nije bio Gospod s nama, kad ljudi ustaše na nas,

if it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, when men rose up against us,

3 Žive bi nas proždrli, kad se raspali gnjev njihov na nas;

then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us,

4 Potopila bi nas voda, rijeka bi pokrila dušu našu;

then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul.

5 Pokrila bi dušu našu silna voda.

Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.

6 Blagosloven Gospod, koji nas ne dade zubima njihovijem da nas rastržu!

Blessed be Yahweh, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7 Duša se naša izbavi kao ptica iz zamke lovaèke; zamka se raskide, i mi se izbavismo.

Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

8 Pomoæ je naša u imenu Gospodnjem, koji je stvorio nebo i zemlju.

Our help is in Yahweh’s name, who made heaven and earth.
