Salme 125

1 Sang til Festrejserne. De, der stoler Paa HERREN, er som Zions Bjerg, der aldrig i Evighed rokkes.

A song of ascents. Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion. It cannot be moved; it abides forever.

2 Jerusalem ligger hegnet af Bjerge; og HERREN hegner sit Folk fra nu og til evig Tid:

As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds His people, both now and forevermore.

3 Han lader ej Gudløsheds Herskerstav tynge retfærdiges Lod, at retfærdige ikke skal udrække Haanden til Uret.

For the scepter of the wicked will not rest upon the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not put forth their hands to injustice.

4 HERRE, vær god mod de gode, de oprigtige af Hjertet;

Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to the upright in heart.

5 men dem, der slaar ind paa Krogveje, dem bortdrive HERREN tillige med Udaadsmænd. Fred over Israel!

But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be upon Israel.
