Psalms 124

以色列人要说： 若不是耶和华帮助我们，

yǐ sè liè rén yào shuō ： ruò bú shì yē hé huá bāng zhù wǒ men ，

If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, let Israel now say,

若不是耶和华帮助我们， 当人起来攻击我们、

ruò bú shì yē hé huá bāng zhù wǒ men ， dāng rén qǐ lái gōng jī wǒ men 、

if it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us,

向我们发怒的时候， 就把我们活活地吞了。

xiàng wǒ men fā nù de shí hou ， jiù bǎ wǒ men huó huó de tūn le 。

then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us,

那时，波涛必漫过我们， 河水必淹没我们，

nà shí ， bō tāo bì màn guò wǒ men ， hé shuǐ bì yān mò wǒ men ，

then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul.

狂傲的水必淹没我们。

kuáng ào de shuǐ bì yān mò wǒ men 。

Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.

耶和华是应当称颂的！ 他没有把我们当野食交给他们吞吃 。

yē hé huá shì yīng dāng chēng sòng de ！ tā méi yǒu bǎ wǒ men dāng yě shí jiāo gěi tā men tūn chī 。

Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

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。

wǒ men hǎo xiàng què niǎo ， cóng bǔ niǎo rén de wǎng luó lǐ táo tuō ； wǎng luó pò liè ， wǒ men táo tuō le 。

Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

我们得帮助， 是在乎倚靠造天地之耶和华的名。

wǒ men dé bāng zhù ， shì zài hu yǐ kào zào tiān dì zhī yē hé huá de míng 。

Our help is in the LORD’s name, who made heaven and earth.
