Salme 125

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

A Song of the going up. Those whose hope is in the Lord are like the mountain of Zion, which may not be moved, but keeps its place for ever.

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

As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people, from this time and for ever.

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

For the rod of sinners will not be resting on the heritage of the upright; so that the upright may not put out their hands to evil.

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

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

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

But as for such as are turned out of the straight way, the Lord will take them away with the workers of evil. Let peace be on Israel.
