Psalms 125

1 A Song of degrees. They that confide in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved; it abideth for ever.

Ingoma yemiqanso. Labo abamethembayo uThixo banjengentaba iZiyoni, yona enganyikinyekiyo, emi kuze kube laphakade.

2 Jerusalem! — mountains are round about her, and Jehovah is round about his people, from henceforth and for evermore.

Njengezintaba ezigombolozele iJerusalema, ngokunjalo uThixo uzungeza abantu bakhe manje kuze kube laphakade.

3 For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

Intonga yobukhosi eyababi kayiyikusala ezweni elabelwe abalungileyo, ngoba abalungileyo bangaqabuka sebesebenzisa izandla zabo ukwenza okubi.

4 Do good, O Jehovah, unto the good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

Yenza okuhle, awu Thixo, kulabo abalungileyo, kulabo abaqotho enhliziyweni

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!

kodwa labo abaphambukela ezindleleni ezitshekileyo uThixo uzabaxotsha kanye labenzi bobubi. Ukuthula kakube ku-Israyeli.
