Psalms 125

1 A song of ascents. Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion. It cannot be moved; it abides forever.

Canticum graduum. Qui confidunt in Domino, sicut mons Sion: non commovebitur in æternum, qui habitat

2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds His people, both now and forevermore.

in Ierusalem. Montes in circuitu eius: et Dominus in circuitu populi sui, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.

3 For the scepter of the wicked will not rest upon the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not put forth their hands to injustice.

Quia non relinquet Dominus virgam peccatorum super sortem iustorum: ut non extendant iusti ad iniquitatem manus suas.

4 Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to the upright in heart.

Benefac Domine bonis, et rectis corde.

5 But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be upon Israel.

Declinantes autem in obligationes, adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem: pax super Israel.
