Salmos 124

Grunewald-Ubersetzung

1Ein Stufenlied, von David. - "Wär' nicht der Herr, der mit uns ist",- so spreche Israel -

2"wär nicht der Herr, der mit uns ist,wenn gegen uns die Leute sich erheben,

3dann würden sie uns ungestraft vernichten,so sehr entflammt ihr Grimm sich gegen uns.

4Begraben würde uns die Wasserflut;bis an die Kehle ginge uns ein Strom.

5Dann ginge bis zum Halsuns flutendes Gewässer."

6Gepriesen sei der Herr,der nicht zum Raub uns ihren Zähnen preisgibt!

7Wie Vögel aus des Fängers Netz,entkommt auch unser Leben.Das Netz zerreißt, und wir sind frei.

8Fest ruhet unsere Hilfe in des Herren Namen,des Schöpfers Himmels und der Erde.

Reina-Valera 1909

1Cántico gradual: de David. A NO haber estado Jehová por nosotros, diga ahora Israel;

2A no haber estado Jehová por nosotros, cuando se levantaron contra nosotros los hombres,

3Vivos nos habrían entonces tragado, cuando se encendió su furor en nosotros.

4Entonces nos habrían inundado las aguas; sobre nuestra alma hubiera pasado el torrente:

5Hubieran entonces pasado sobre nuestra alma las aguas soberbias.

6Bendito Jehová, que no nos dió por presa á sus dientes.

7Nuestra alma escapó cual ave del lazo de los cazadores: quebróse el lazo, y escapamos nosotros.

8Nuestro socorro es en el nombre de Jehová, que hizo el cielo y la tierra.

King James Version

1If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;

2If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:

3Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:

4Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:

5Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

6Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

8Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

World English Bible

1If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, let Israel now say,

2if it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us,

3then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us,

4then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul.

5Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.

6Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.

8Our help is in the LORD’s name, who made heaven and earth.
