Psalms 124

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH
1 A song of ascents. Of David. I Had not the LORD been with us, let Israel say,	1 שִׁיר הַמַּעֲלֹות לְדָוִד לוּלֵי יְהוָה שֶׁהָיָה לָנוּ יֹאמַר־נָא יִשְׂרָאֵל
2 Had not the LORD been with us, when people rose against us,	2 לוּלֵי יְהוָה שֶׁהָיָה לָנוּ בְּקוּם עָלֵינוּ אָדָם
3 They would have swallowed us alive, for their fury blazed against us.	3 אֲזַי חַיִּים בְּלָעוּנוּ בַּחֲרֹות אַפָּם בָּנוּ
4 The waters would have engulfed us, the torrent overwhelmed us;	4 אֲזַי הַמַּיִם שְׁטָפוּנוּ נַחְלָה עָבַר עַל־נַפְשֵׁנוּ
5 seething waters would have drowned us.	5 אֲזַי עָבַר עַל־נַפְשֵׁנוּ הַמַּיִם הַזֵּידֹונִים
6 Blessed be the LORD, who did not leave us to be torn by their fangs.	6 בָּרוּךְ יְהוָה שֶׁלֹּא נְתָנָנוּ טֶרֶף לְשִׁנֵּיהֶם
7 We escaped with our lives like a bird from the fowler's snare; the snare was broken and we escaped.	7 נַפְשֵׁנוּ כְּצִפֹּור נִמְלְטָה מִפַּח יֹוקְשִׁים הַפַּח נִשְׁבָּר וַאֲנַחְנוּ נִמְלָטְנוּ
8 Our help is the name of the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth.	8 עֶזְרֵנוּ בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה עֹשֵׂה שָׁמַיִם וָאָרֶץ
