Psalms 125

1 Those/We who trust in Yahweh are [as secure/steadfast] [SIM] as Zion Hill, which cannot be shaken and can never be moved.

Cantique de Mahaloth. Ceux qui se confient en l'Eternel sont comme la montagne de Sion, qui ne peut être ébranlée, et qui se soutient à toujours.

2 Like the hills that surround Jerusalem [protect the city], Yahweh protects [us], his people, and he will protect us forever.

Quant à Jérusalem, il y a des montagnes à l'entour d'elle, et l'Eternel est à l'entour de son peuple, dès maintenant et à toujours.

3 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.

Car la verge de la méchanceté ne reposera point sur le lot des justes; de peur que les justes ne mettent leurs mains à l'iniquité.

4 Yahweh, do good things to those who do good things to others and to those who sincerely obey your commands [IDM].

Eternel, bénis les gens de bien et ceux dont le cœur est droit.

5 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!

Mais quant à ceux qui tordent leurs sentiers obliques, l'Eternel les fera marcher avec les ouvriers d'iniquité. La paix [sera] sur Israël.
