| 124:1 | （大卫上行之诗）以色列人要说，若不是耶和华帮助我们， If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say; | ||
| 124:2 | 若不是耶和华帮助我们，当人起来攻击我们， If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us: | ||
| 124:3 | 向我们发怒的时候，就把我们活活地吞了。 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us: | ||
| 124:4 | 那时，波涛必漫过我们，河水必淹没我们。 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul: | ||
| 124:5 | 狂傲的水必淹没我们。 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul. | ||
| 124:6 | 耶和华是应当称颂的。他没有把我们当野食交给他们吞吃（原文作牙齿）。 Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth. | ||
| 124:7 | 我们好像雀鸟，从捕鸟人的网罗里逃脱。网罗破裂，我们逃脱了。 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped. | ||
| 124:8 | 我们得帮助，是在乎倚靠造天地之耶和华的名。 Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth. | ||
