< Psalms 125 >
1 A Song of degrees. They that confide in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved; it abideth for ever.
依靠上主的人有如熙雍山,屹立不動,必永遠常存不變。
2 Jerusalem! — mountains are round about her, and Jehovah is round about his people, from henceforth and for evermore.
群山怎樣環繞著耶路撒冷,上主也怎樣保衛他的百姓,從現今開始,直到永恆。
3 For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.
他不讓惡人的權杖,來統治義人的家當,免得義人伸出手掌,為非作歹效尤學樣。
4 Do good, O Jehovah, unto the good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.
上主,求您賜福給善良的人,又求您賜福給心地正直的人!
5 But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel!
那自甘墮落於自己邪惡的人,上主必使他們與惡徒一起沉淪。唯願以色列家族永享平靜安寧。
