المَزامِير 125

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

Those/We who trust in Yahweh are [as secure/steadfast] [SIM] as Zion Hill, which cannot be shaken and can never be moved.

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

Like the hills that surround Jerusalem [protect the city], Yahweh protects [us], his people, and he will protect us forever.

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

Wicked people [MTY] should not [be allowed to] rule over the land where righteous [people] live. If they did that, those righteous [people] might [(be encouraged to imitate them and]) do things that are wrong.

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

Yahweh, do good things to those who do good things to others and to those who sincerely obey your commands [IDM].

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

But when you punish the wicked people [who are not Israelis], also punish those [Israelis] who turn away from walking on the good roads [MET] that you have shown them! I wish that things will go well for [people in] Israel!
