< Psalms 125 >
1 [A Song of Ascents.] Those who trust in the LORD are as Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but remains forever.
O KA poe hilinai aku ia Iehova, E like no lakou me ka mauna o Ziona, Aole ia e naue, e noho mau loa no.
2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people from this time forth and forevermore.
Ua puni o Ierusalema i na mauna, Pela o Iehova e hoopuni ai i kona poe kanaka, Mai keia wa aku, a i ka manawa pau ole.
3 For the scepter of wickedness won't remain over the allotment of the righteous; so that the righteous won't use their hands to do evil.
Aole e waihoia ke kookoo o ka poe hewa, Ma ka puu o ka poe pono; O kau aku ka poe pono i ko lakou lima ma ka hewa.
4 Do good, LORD, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts.
E hana maikai mai oe, e Iehova, i ka poe maikai, A i ka poe hoi i pololei ma ko lakou naau.
5 But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, The LORD will lead them away with evildoers. Peace be on Israel.
O ka poe kapae ma ko lakou ala keekee, E alakai pu aku no o Iehova ia lakou me ka poe hana lapuwale; A he malu no maluna o ka Iseraela.
