Psalms 125

1 “A song of the degrees.” Those who trust in the Lord are like mount Zion, which will not he moved, which endureth for ever.

שִׁ֗יר הַֽמַּ֫עֲלֹ֥ות הַבֹּטְחִ֥ים בַּיהוָ֑ה כְּֽהַר־צִיֹּ֥ון לֹא־יִ֝מֹּ֗וט לְעֹולָ֥ם יֵשֵֽׁב׃

2 Jerusalem hath mountains round about her: and [so] is the Lord round about his people, from this time forth and for evermore.

יְֽרוּשָׁלַ֗͏ִם הָרִים֮ סָבִ֪יב לָ֥הּ וַ֭יהוָה סָבִ֣יב לְעַמֹּ֑ו מֵ֝עַתָּ֗ה וְעַד־עֹולָֽם׃

3 For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous: in order that the righteous may not stretch forth their hands unto wrong-doing.

כִּ֤י לֹ֪א יָנ֡וּחַ שֵׁ֤בֶט הָרֶ֗שַׁע עַל֮ גֹּורַ֪ל הַֽצַּדִּ֫יקִ֥ים לְמַ֡עַן לֹא־יִשְׁלְח֖וּ הַצַּדִּיקִ֨ים בְּעַוְלָ֬תָה יְדֵיהֶֽם׃

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

הֵיטִ֣יבָה יְ֭הוָה לַטֹּובִ֑ים וְ֝לִֽישָׁרִ֗ים בְּלִבֹּותָֽם׃

5 But as for those who turn aside unto their crooked ways, them will the Lord drive away with the workers of wickedness; but peace shall be upon Israel.

וְהַמַּטִּ֤ים עַֽקַלְקַלֹּותָ֗ם יֹולִיכֵ֣ם יְ֭הוָה אֶת־פֹּעֲלֵ֣י הָאָ֑וֶן שָׁ֝לֹ֗ום עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
