Salme 125

1 (Sang til Festrejserne.) De der stoler På HERREN, er som Zions bjerg, der aldrig i evighed rokkes.

Those who trust in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever.

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 Jehovah is round about his people from this time forth and for evermore.

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

For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous, that the righteous not put forth their hands to iniquity.

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

Do good, O Jehovah, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts.

5 men dem, der slår ind på krogveje, dem bortdrive HERREN tillige med Udådsmænd. Fred over Israel!

But as for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel.
