因免敌害感颂主恩

124 大卫上行之诗。

以色列人要说:“若不是耶和华帮助我们,
若不是耶和华帮助我们,当人起来攻击我们,
向我们发怒的时候,就把我们活活地吞了。
那时波涛必漫过我们,河水必淹没我们,
狂傲的水必淹没我们。”
耶和华是应当称颂的!他没有把我们当野食交给他们吞吃[a]
我们好像雀鸟从捕鸟人的网罗里逃脱,网罗破裂,我们逃脱了。
我们得帮助,是在乎倚靠造天地之耶和华的名。

Had He Not Been on Our Side

Psalm 124

A Song of Ascents. Of David.
“Had Adonai not been on our side”
—let Israel now say—
“Had Adonai not been on our side,
when men rose up against us,
then they would have swallowed us alive,
when their wrath burned against us.
Then the waters would have engulfed us,
the torrent would have swept over our soul,
then the raging waters
would have swept over our soul.”

Blessed be Adonai, who has not given us
as prey for their teeth.
Our soul has escaped like a bird
out of the snare of the trappers—
the snare is broken, and we escaped!
Our help is in the Name of Adonai,
Maker of heaven and earth.
