Psalmus 123 (124)
Language:
Latin
1 Nisi quia Dominus erat in nobis dicat nunc Israel
2 Nisi quia Dominus erat in nobis cum exsurgerent in nos homines
3 Forte vivos degluttissent nos cum irasceretur furor eorum in nos
4 Forsitan aqua absorbuisset nos
5 Torrentem pertransivit anima nostra forsitan
pertransisset anima nostra aquam intolerabilem
6 Benedictus Dominus qui non dedit nos in captionem dentibus eorum
7 Anima nostra sicut passer erepta est de laqueo venantium laqueus
contritus est et nos liberati sumus
8 Adiutorium nostrum in nomine Domini qui fecit caelum et terram

A song of Battle
Language:
English
If the Lord Himself had not been on our side,
now may Israel say:
If the Lord Himself had not been on our side,
when men rose up against us;
Then they had swallowed us up alive,
when their wrath was kindled against us.
Then the waters had overwhelmed us,
The stream had gone over our soul:
Then the proud waters had gone even over our soul.
Blessed be the Lord,
who hath not given us
as a prey unto their teeth.
Our soul is escaped even as a bird
From the snare of the fowlers;
The snare is broken,
and we are delivered.
Our help is in the name of the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.
