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

¹Hodočasnička pjesma. Davidova. Da nije Jahve za nas bio - neka slobodno rekne Izrael -

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

²da nije Jahve za nas bio: kad se ljudi digoše proti nama,

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

³žive bi nas progutali. Kad je uskipio bijes njihov na nas,

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

⁴voda bi nas podavila; bujica bi nas odnijela,

⁵Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

⁵vode pobješnjele sve nas potopile.

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

⁶Blagoslovljen Jahve koji nas ne dade za plijen zubima njihovim!

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

⁷Duša je naša poput ptice umakla iz zamke lovaca: raskinula se zamka, a mi umakosmo!

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

⁸Pomoć je naša u imenu Jahve koji stvori nebo i zemlju.
