Psalm 124 – NIRV & APSD-CEB

New International Reader’s Version

Psalm 124:1-8

Psalm 124

A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord. A psalm of David.

1Here is what Israel should say.

Suppose the Lord had not been on our side.

2Suppose the Lord had not been on our side

when our enemies attacked us.

3Suppose he had not been on our side

when their burning anger blazed out against us.

Then they would have swallowed us alive.

4They would have been like a flood that drowned us.

They would have swept over us like a rushing river.

5They would have washed us away

like a swollen stream.

6Give praise to the Lord.

He has not let our enemies chew us up.

7We have escaped like a bird

from a hunter’s trap.

The trap has been broken,

and we have escaped.

8Our help comes from the Lord.

He is the Maker of heaven and earth.

Ang Pulong Sa Dios

Salmo 124:1-8

Salmo 124

Ang Dios Molaban sa Iyang Katawhan

1Kon wala pa modapig ang Ginoo kanato, unsa kaha ang mahitabo?

Tubag kamo mga taga-Israel!

2“Kon wala pa modapig ang Ginoo kanato sa dihang gisulong kita sa mga kaaway,

3gipatay na unta nila kita tungod sa ilang labihang kasuko kanato.

4-5Daw gilapawan na unta kita sa tubig;

gianod sa makusog nga baha ug nalumos.

6Dalaygon ang Ginoo, kay wala siya motugot nga kunis-kunison kita sa atong mga kaaway nga sama sa mabangis nga mga mananap.

7Nakaikyas kita nga daw langgam nga nakabuhi gikan sa lit-ag.

Naguba ang lit-ag ug naluwas kita.

8Ang panabang nga atong nadawat nagagikan sa Ginoo, nga naghimo sa kalangitan ug sa kalibotan.”
