| Chapter 124 |
1 |
A Song of the Ascents, by David. Save [for] Jehovah -- who hath been for us, (Pray, let Israel say),
|
2 |
Save [for] Jehovah -- who hath been for us, In the rising up of man against us,
|
3 |
Then alive they had swallowed us up, In the burning of their anger against us,
|
4 |
Then the waters had overflowed us, The stream passed over our soul,
|
5 |
Then passed over our soul had the proud waters.
|
6 |
Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath not given us, A prey to their teeth.
|
7 |
Our soul as a bird hath escaped from a snare of fowlers, The snare was broken, and we have escaped.
|
8 |
Our help [is] in the name of Jehovah, Maker of the heavens and earth!
