< Salme 125 >
1 Sang til Festrejserne. De, der stoler Paa HERREN, er som Zions Bjerg, der aldrig i Evighed rokkes.
They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Sion: he shall not be moved for ever that dwelleth
2 Jerusalem ligger hegnet af Bjerge; og HERREN hegner sit Folk fra nu og til evig Tid:
In Jerusalem. Mountains are round about it: so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth now and for ever.
3 Han lader ej Gudløsheds Herskerstav tynge retfærdiges Lod, at retfærdige ikke skal udrække Haanden til Uret.
For the Lord will not leave the rod of sinners upon the lot of the just: that the just may not stretch forth their hands to iniquity.
4 HERRE, vær god mod de gode, de oprigtige af Hjertet;
Do good, O Lord, to those that are good, and to the upright of heart.
5 men dem, der slaar ind paa Krogveje, dem bortdrive HERREN tillige med Udaadsmænd. Fred over Israel!
But such as turn aside into bonds, the Lord shall lead out with the workers of iniquity: peace upon Israel.
