< Psalms 125 >
1 [A Song of Ascents.] Those who trust in YHWH are as Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but remains forever.
Þeir sem treysta Drottni eru eins og Síonfjall, þeir haggast ekki.
2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so YHWH surrounds his people from this time forth and forevermore.
Fjöllin umhverfis Jerúsalem eru henni til verndar, eins er Drottinn, hann umlykur og verndar sitt fólk.
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.
Ekki skulu óguðlegir drottna yfir trúuðum, né réttlátir þvingaðir til illverka.
4 Do good, YHWH, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts.
Ó, Drottinn, gerðu vel við þá sem góðir eru, þá sem leitast við að gera vilja þinn,
5 But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, YHWH will lead them away with evildoers. Peace be on Israel.
en útrýmdu illgjörðamönnum. Láttu frið og velgengni ríkja í Ísrael.
