Psalmi 125

VULGATADOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Canticum graduum. In convertendo Dominus captivitatem Sion,
facti sumus sicut consolati.
1 If it had not been that the Lord was with us, let Israel now say:
2 Tunc repletum est gaudio os nostrum,
et lingua nostra exsultatione.
Tunc dicent inter gentes :
Magnificavit Dominus facere cum eis.
2 If it had not been that the Lord was with us, When men rose up against us
3 Magnificavit Dominus facere nobiscum ;
facti sumus lætantes.
3 perhaps they had swallowed us up alive. When their fury was enkindled against us,
4 Converte, Domine, captivitatem nostram,
sicut torrens in austro.
4 perhaps the waters had swallowed us up.
5 Qui seminant in lacrimis,
in exsultatione metent.
5 Our soul hath passed through a torrent: perhaps our soul had passed through a water insupportable.
6 Euntes ibant et flebant,
mittentes semina sua.
Venientes autem venient cum exsultatione,
portantes manipulos suos.
6 Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us to be a prey to their teeth.
7 Our soul hath been delivered as a sparrow out of the snare of the followers. The snare is broken, and we are delivered.
8 Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
