< Psalms 125 >
1 song [the] step [the] to trust in/on/with LORD like/as mountain: mount Zion not to shake to/for forever: enduring to dwell
Those/We who trust in Yahweh are [as secure/steadfast] [SIM] as Zion Hill, which cannot be shaken and can never be moved.
2 Jerusalem mountain: mount around to/for her and LORD around to/for people his from now and till forever: enduring
Like the hills that surround Jerusalem [protect the city], Yahweh protects [us], his people, and he will protect us forever.
3 for not to rest tribe: staff [the] wickedness upon allotted [the] righteous because not to send: reach [the] righteous in/on/with injustice hand their
Wicked people [MTY] should not [be allowed to] rule over the land where righteous [people] live. If they did that, those righteous [people] might [(be encouraged to imitate them and]) do things that are wrong.
4 be good [emph?] LORD to/for pleasant and to/for upright in/on/with heart their
Yahweh, do good things to those who do good things to others and to those who sincerely obey your commands [IDM].
5 and [the] to stretch crooked their to go: went them LORD with to work [the] evil: wickedness peace upon Israel
But when you punish the wicked people [who are not Israelis], also punish those [Israelis] who turn away from walking on the good roads [MET] that you have shown them! I wish that things will go well for [people in] Israel!
