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.

Ɔsoroforo dwom. Wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho to Awurade so no te sɛ Bepɔw Sion, a ɛnwosow na etim hɔ daa no.

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

Sɛnea mmepɔw atwa Yerusalem ho ahyia no, saa ara na Awurade atwa ne nkurɔfo ho ahyia mprempren ne daa.

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.

Amumɔyɛfo ahempema renka asase a wɔde ama atreneefo no so, sɛ ɛba saa a, atreneefo nam wɔn so bɛyɛ bɔne.

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

Awurade wɔn a wɔyɛ papa no, yɛ wɔn papa, wɔn a wɔteɛ wɔ koma mu no, yɛ wɔn papa.

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!

Na wɔn a wɔman fa akwan kɔntɔnkye so no de, Awurade betwa wɔn ne nnebɔneyɛfo asu. Asomdwoe nka Israel.
