< Psalms 125 >
1 A Song of degrees. They that confide in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved; it abideth for ever.
Canticum graduum. Qui confidunt in Domino, sicut mons Sion: non commovebitur in æternum, qui habitat
2 Jerusalem! — mountains are round about her, and Jehovah is round about his people, from henceforth and for evermore.
in Jerusalem. Montes in circuitu ejus; et Dominus in circuitu populi sui, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
3 For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.
Quia non relinquet Dominus virgam peccatorum super sortem justorum: ut non extendant justi ad iniquitatem manus suas,
4 Do good, O Jehovah, unto the good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.
benefac, Domine, bonis, et rectis corde.
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!
Declinantes autem in obligationes, adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem. Pax super Israël!
