Псалми 124
1 Пісня проча́н. Давидова.
A Canticle in steps. If the Lord had not been with us, let Israel now say it:
if the Lord had not been with us, when men rose up against us,
3 то нас поковта́ли б живце́м, коли розпали́вся на нас їхній гнів,
perhaps they would have swallowed us alive. When their fury was enraged against us,
4 то нас позалива́ла б вода, душу нашу поті́к перейшов би.
perhaps the waters would have engulfed us.
5 душу нашу тоді перейшла б та бурхли́ва вода!
Our soul has passed through a torrent. Perhaps, our soul had even passed through intolerable water.
6 Благослове́нний Госпо́дь, що не дав нас на здо́бич для їхніх зубі́в!
Blessed is the Lord, who has not given us into the harm of their teeth.
7 Душа наша, як птах, урятува́лась із сільця́ птахоло́вів, — сільце́ розірва́лось, а ми врятува́лись!
Our soul has been snatched away like a sparrow from the snare of the hunters. The snare has been broken, and we have been freed.
8 Наша поміч — ув Імені Господа, що вчинив небо й землю!
Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
