المَزامِير 125

١ 1 تَرْنِيمَةُ الْمَصَاعِدِ الْوَاثِقُونَ بِالرَّبِّ هُمْ مِثْلُ جَبَلِ صِهْيَوْنَ الرَّاسِخِ الَّذِي لَا يَتَزَعْزَعُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.

“A song of the degrees.” Those who trust in the Lord are like mount Zion, which will not he moved, which endureth for ever.

٢ 2 كَمَا تُحِيطُ الْجِبَالُ بِأُورُشَلِيمَ، كَذَلِكَ يُحِيطُ الرَّبُّ بِشَعْبِهِ مِنَ الآنَ وَإِلَى الأَبَدِ،

Jerusalem hath mountains round about her: and [so] is the Lord round about his people, from this time forth and for evermore.

٣ 3 فَلَا يَتَسَلَّطُ الأَشْرَارُ عَلَى نَصِيبِ الأَبْرَارِ لِئَلّا يَمُدَّ الأَبْرَارُ أَيْدِيَهُمْ إِلَى الإِثْمِ.

For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous: in order that the righteous may not stretch forth their hands unto wrong-doing.

٤ 4 أَحْسِنْ يَا رَبُّ إِلَى الأَخْيَارِ وَإِلَى ذَوِي الْقُلُوبِ الْمُسْتَقِيمَةِ.

Do good, O Lord, unto the good, and to those that are upright in their hearts.

٥ 5 أَمَّا الَّذِينَ يَحِيدُونَ إِلَى طُرُقٍ مُلْتَوِيَةٍ، فَإِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَسُوقُهُمْ إِلَى الْهَلاكِ مَعَ فَاعِلِي الإِثْمِ. لِيَكُنِ السَّلامُ لِشَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

But as for those who turn aside unto their crooked ways, them will the Lord drive away with the workers of wickedness; but peace shall be upon Israel.
