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.

Pesem preizvrstna. Kateri zaupajo Gospodu, podobni so gori Sijonski, ki se ne gane, vekomaj ostane.

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

Kakor obdajajo Jeruzalem gore, tako obdaja Gospod ljudstvo svoje; od tega časa na vekomaj.

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.

Ker šiba krivice ne počiva nad deležem pravičnih; da ne iztegnejo pravični na nobeno krivico rok svojih.

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

Blagoslovi, Gospod, dobre in pravične v srcih svojih.

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.

Kateri pa zavijajo na kriva pota svoja, pokori jih naj Gospod z njimi, ki delajo krivico. Mir Izraelu!
