Mga Awit 124
Magandang Balita Biblia
Ang Diyos ang Tagapagtanggol ng Kanyang Bayan
Isang Awit ng Pag-akyat upang Sumamba; katha ni David.
124 Ano kaya't kung si Yahweh ay di pumanig sa atin;
O Israel, ano kaya yaong iyong sasabihin?
2 “Kung ang Diyos na si Yahweh, sa amin ay di pumanig,
noong kami'y salakayin ng kaaway na malupit,
3 maaaring kami noon ay nilamon na nang buháy
sa silakbo ng damdamin at ng galit na sukdulan.
4 Maaaring kami noo'y natangay na niyong agos,
naanod sa karagata't tuluy-tuloy na nalunod;
5 sa lakas ng agos noo'y nalunod nga kaming lubos.
6 Tayo ay magpasalamat, si Yahweh ay papurihan,
pagkat tayo'y iniligtas sa malupit na kaaway.
7 Ang katulad nati'y ibong sa bitag ay nakatakas;
lubos tayong nakalaya nang ang bitag ay mawasak.
8 Tulong nating kailangan ay kay Yahweh nagmumula,
pagkat itong lupa't langit tanging siya ang lumikha.
Psalm 124
English Standard Version
Our Help Is in the Name of the Lord
A Song of (A)Ascents. Of David.
124 (B)If it had not been the Lord who was on our side—
(C)let Israel now say—
2 if it had not been the Lord who was on our side
when people rose up against us,
3 then they would have (D)swallowed us up alive,
when their anger was kindled against us;
4 then (E)the flood would have (F)swept us away,
the torrent would have gone (G)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 like a bird
from (H)the snare of the fowlers;
the snare is broken,
and we have escaped!
8 (I)Our help is in the name of the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.
Psalm 124
New American Standard Bible
Praise for Rescue from Enemies.
A Song of Ascents, of David.
124 “(A)Had it not been the Lord who was on our side,”
(B)Let Israel say,
2 “Had it not been the Lord who was on our side
When people rose up against us,
3 Then they would have (C)swallowed us alive,
When their (D)anger was kindled against us;
4 Then the (E)waters would have flooded over us,
The stream would have [a]swept over our souls;
5 Then the (F)raging waters would have [b]swept over our souls.”
6 Blessed be the Lord,
Who has not given us [c]to be (G)torn by their teeth.
7 Our souls have (H)escaped (I)like a bird from the trapper’s (J)snare;
The snare is broken and we have escaped.
8 Our (K)help is in the name of the Lord,
Who (L)made heaven and earth.
