Psalmi 124

VULGATANEW JERUSALEM
1 Canticum graduum. Qui confidunt in Domino, sicut mons Sion :
non commovebitur in æternum,
qui habitat
1 [Song of Ascents Of David] If Yahweh had not been on our side -- let Israel repeat it-
2 in Jerusalem.
Montes in circuitu ejus ;
et Dominus in circuitu populi sui,
ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
2 if Yahweh had not been on our side when people attacked us,
3 Quia non relinquet Dominus virgam peccatorum
super sortem justorum :
ut non extendant justi
ad iniquitatem manus suas,
3 they would have swal owed us alive in the heat of their anger.
4 benefac, Domine, bonis,
et rectis corde.
4 Then water was washing us away, a torrent running right over us;
5 Declinantes autem in obligationes,
adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem.
Pax super Israël !
5 running right over us then were turbulent waters.
6 Blessed be Yahweh for not letting us fall a prey to their teeth!
7 We escaped like a bird from the fowlers' net. The net was broken and we escaped;
8 our help is in the name of Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
