Psalm 124
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Thanksgiving for Israel’s Deliverance
A Song of Ascents. Of David.
124 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side,
let Israel now say—
2 if it had not been the Lord who was on our side,
when men rose up against us,
3 then they would have swallowed us up alive,
when their anger was kindled against us;
4 then the flood would have swept us away,
the torrent would have gone over us;
5 then over us would have gone
the raging waters.
6 Blessed be the Lord,
who has not given us
as prey to their teeth!
7 We have escaped as a bird
from the snare of the fowlers;
the snare is broken,
and we have escaped!
8 Our help is in the name of the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.
Salmo 124
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Ang Dios ang Tagapagligtas ng Kanyang mga Mamamayan
124 “Kung ang Panginoon ay hindi pumanig sa atin, ano kaya ang nangyari?”
Sumagot kayo mga taga-Israel!
2 “Kung ang Panginoon ay hindi pumanig sa atin noong sinalakay tayo ng ating mga kaaway,
3 maaaring pinatay na nila tayo, dahil sa matinding galit nila sa atin.
4-5 Maaaring para tayong tinangay ng baha at nalunod dahil sa malakas na agos ng tubig.”
6 Purihin ang Panginoon,
dahil hindi niya pinayagang lapain tayo ng ating mga kaaway,
na parang mababangis na hayop.
7 Nakatakas tayo katulad ng ibong nakawala sa nasirang bitag.
8 Ang tulong natin ay nagmula sa Panginoon,
na gumawa ng langit at ng lupa.
