Psalmul 124
O cântare a treptelor.
Un psalm al lui David
1 De n-ar fi fost Domnul de partea noastră,
să spună(A) Israel acum!
2 De n-ar fi fost Domnul de partea noastră
când s-au ridicat oamenii împotriva noastră,
3 ne-ar(B) fi înghiţit de vii
când li s-a aprins mânia împotriva noastră;
4 ne-ar fi înecat apele,
ar fi trecut râurile peste sufletul nostru;
5 ar fi trecut peste sufletul nostru valurile năpraznice.
6 Binecuvântat să fie Domnul,
care nu ne-a dat pradă dinţilor lor!
7 Sufletul ne-a scăpat ca(C) pasărea din laţul păsărarului;
laţul s-a rupt, şi noi am scăpat.
8 Ajutorul(D) nostru este în Numele Domnului,
care(E) a făcut cerurile şi pământul.
Psalm 124
King James Version
124 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, now may Israel say;
2 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men rose up against us:
3 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:
4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
6 Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.
8 Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Psalm 124
New King James Version
The Lord the Defense of His People
A Song of Ascents. Of David.
124 “If it had not been the Lord who was on our (A)side,”
(B)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 (C)swallowed us alive,
When their wrath was kindled against us;
4 Then the waters would have overwhelmed us,
The stream would have [a]gone over our soul;
5 Then the swollen waters
Would have [b]gone over our soul.”
6 Blessed be the Lord,
Who has not given us as prey to their teeth.
7 (D)Our soul has escaped (E)as a bird from the snare of the [c]fowlers;
The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
8 (F)Our help is in the name of the Lord,
(G)Who made heaven and earth.

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.
