1 Canto de peregrinación.

Levanto mis ojos hacia ti,

que habitas en el cielo.

1 A Canticle in steps. If the Lord had not been with us, let Israel now say it:
2 Como los ojos de los servidores

están fijos en las manos de su señor,

y los ojos de la servidora

en las manos de su dueña:

así miran nuestros ojos al Señor, nuestro Dios,

hasta que se apiade de nosotros.

2 if the Lord had not been with us, when men rose up against us,
3 ¡Ten piedad, Señor,

ten piedad de nosotros,

porque estamos hartos de desprecios!

3 perhaps they would have swallowed us alive. When their fury was enraged against us,
4 Nuestra alma está saturada

de la burla de los arrogantes,

del desprecio de los orgullosos.

4 perhaps the waters would have engulfed us.
5 Our soul has passed through a torrent. Perhaps, our soul had even passed through intolerable water.
6 Blessed is the Lord, who has not given us into the harm of their teeth.
7 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 Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
