Psalms 123

Catholic Public Domain Bible	Stuttgartensia - Delitzsch
¹ A Canticle in steps. If the Lord had not been with us, let Israel now say it:	¹ שִׁיר הַמַּעֲלֹות אֵלֶיךָ נָשָׂאתִי אֶת־עֵינַי הַיֹּשְׁבִי בַּשָּׁמָיִם
² if the Lord had not been with us, when men rose up against us,	² הִנֵּה כְעֵינֵי עֲבָדִים אֶל־יַד אֲ‍דֹונֵיהֶם כְּעֵינֵי שִׁפְחָה אֶל־יַד גְּבִרְתָּהּ כֵּן עֵינֵינוּ אֶל־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ עַד שֶׁיְּחָנֵּנוּ
³ perhaps they would have swallowed us alive. When their fury was enraged against us,	³ חָנֵּנוּ יְהוָה חָנֵּנוּ כִּי־רַב שָׂבַעְנוּ בוּז
⁴ perhaps the waters would have engulfed us.	⁴ רַבַּת שָׂבְעָה־לָּהּ נַפְשֵׁנוּ הַלַּעַג הַשַּׁאֲנַנִּים הַבּוּז לִגְאֵיֹונִים
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.
