The Holy Bible - The Psalms, Chapter 124 (Latin)

1(123:1)If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;

2(123:2)If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:

3(123:3)Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:

4(123:4)Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:

5(123:5)Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.

6(123:6)Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

7(123:7)Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

8(123:8)Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

1canticum graduum David nisi Dominus fuisset in nobis dicat nunc Israhel

2nisi Dominus fuisset in nobis cum exsurgerent super nos homines

3forsitan vivos absorbuissent nos cum irasceretur furor eorum super nos

4forsitan aquae circumdedissent nos

5torrens transisset super animam nostram forsitan transissent super animam nostram aquae superbae

6benedictus Dominus qui non dedit nos in praedam dentibus eorum

7anima nostra quasi avis erepta est de laqueo venantium laqueus contritus est et nos liberati sumus

8auxilium nostrum in nomine Domini qui fecit caelum et terram
