< Psalms 125 >
1 A Song of degrees. They that confide in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved; it abideth for ever.
Wale wamwaminio Yahwe ni kama mlima Sayuni, hautikisiki, wadumu milele.
2 Jerusalem! — mountains are round about her, and Jehovah is round about his people, from henceforth and for evermore.
Kama milima inavyo izunguka Yerusalemu, hivyo ndivyo Yahwe anavyo wazunguka watu wake sasa na hata milele.
3 For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.
Fimbo ya uovu haitatawala katika nchi ya wenye haki. Vinginevyo wenye haki wanaweza kukosea.
4 Do good, O Jehovah, unto the good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.
Ee Yahwe, utende wema kwa wale walio wema na wale walio wanyoofu mioyoni mwao.
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!
Lakini kwa wale wanaogeukia njia zao za upotovu, Yahwe atawaondoa pamoja na watenda maovu. Amani iwe na Israeli.
