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 as Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but remains 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 from this time forth and forevermore.

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

For the scepter of wickedness won't remain over the allotment of the righteous; so that the righteous won't use their hands to do evil.

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

Do good, LORD, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts.

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

But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, The LORD will lead them away with evildoers. Peace be on Israel.
