< Psalms 125 >
1 Those who trust in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever.
Canticum graduum. Qui confidunt in Domino, sicut mons Sion: non commovebitur in æternum, qui habitat
2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so Jehovah is round about his people from this time forth and for evermore.
in Ierusalem. Montes in circuitu eius: et Dominus in circuitu populi sui, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous, that the righteous not put forth their hands to iniquity.
Quia non relinquet Dominus virgam peccatorum super sortem iustorum: ut non extendant iusti ad iniquitatem manus suas.
4 Do good, O Jehovah, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts.
Benefac Domine bonis, et rectis corde.
5 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.
Declinantes autem in obligationes, adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem: pax super Israel.
