Psalms 125

1 They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but stays for ever.

De, som forlade sig paa Herren, de ere som Zions Bjerg, der ikke rokkes, men bliver evindelig.

2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people from now on even for ever.

Der er Bjerge trindt omkring Jerusalem, og Herren er trindt omkring sit Folk fra nu og indtil evig Tid.

3 For the rod of the wicked shall not rest on the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands to iniquity.

Thi Ugudelighedens Spir skal ikke hvile over de retfærdiges Lod, paa det de retfærdige ikke skulle udrække deres Hænder til Uretfærdighed.

4 Do good, O LORD, to those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

Gør vel, Herre! imod de gode og imod dem, der ere oprigtige i deres Hjerter.

5 As for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be on Israel.

Men dem, som bøje ind paa deres Krogveje, skal Herren lade fare bort med dem, som øve Uret. Fred være over Israel!
