Psalms 124
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1A Song of Ascents; of David. 'If it had not been the LORD who was for us', let Israel now say;
1Canticum graduum. [Qui confidunt in Domino, sicut mons Sion: non commovebitur in æternum, qui habitat
2'If it had not been the LORD who was for us, when men rose up against us,
2in Jerusalem. Montes in circuitu ejus; et Dominus in circuitu populi sui, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
3Then they had swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;
3Quia non relinquet Dominus virgam peccatorum super sortem justorum: ut non extendant justi ad iniquitatem manus suas,
4Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul;
4benefac, Domine, bonis, et rectis corde.
5Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.'
5Declinantes autem in obligationes, adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem. Pax super Israël !]
6Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
