< Psalms 125 >

1 A Canticle in steps. Those who trust in the Lord will be like the mountain of Zion. He will not be disturbed for eternity, who dwells
Canticum graduum. Qui confidunt in Domino, sicut mons Sion: non commovebitur in æternum, qui habitat
2 in Jerusalem. Mountains surround it. And the Lord surrounds his people, from this time forward and even forever.
in Jerusalem. Montes in circuitu ejus; et Dominus in circuitu populi sui, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
3 For the Lord will not allow the rod of sinners to remain over the lot of the just, so that the just may not extend their hands toward iniquity.
Quia non relinquet Dominus virgam peccatorum super sortem justorum: ut non extendant justi ad iniquitatem manus suas,
4 Do good, O Lord, to the good and to the upright of heart.
benefac, Domine, bonis, et rectis corde.
5 But those who turn away into obligation, the Lord will lead away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel.
Declinantes autem in obligationes, adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem. Pax super Israël!
