< Psalms 125 >
1 A song of ascents. Those who trust in Yahweh are like Mount Zion, unshakable, forever enduring.
Kasang laa. Angraeng oep kaminawk loe anghuen ai, dungzan kacak, Zion mae baktiah om o tih.
2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so Yahweh surrounds his people now and forever.
Maenawk mah Jerusalem to takui khoep baktih toengah, Angraeng mah angmah ih kaminawk to vaihi hoi dungzan khoek to takui khoep.
3 The scepter of wickedness must not rule in the land of the righteous. Otherwise the righteous might do what is wrong.
Katoeng kaminawk ih prae thungah kasae kaminawk ih cunghet to om mak ai, to tih ai nahaeloe katoeng kaminawk loe a ban to kahoih ai hmuen sak hanah patoh o moeng tih.
4 Do good, Yahweh, to those who are good and to those who are upright in their hearts.
Aw Angraeng, kahoih kaminawk hoi poektoeng kaminawk khaeah, kahoih hmuen to sah ah.
5 But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, Yahweh will lead them away with the evildoers. May peace be on Israel.
Loklam kang koiah amkhraeng kaminawk loe, Angraeng mah kahoih ai hmuen sah kaminawk hoi nawnto caeh haih hmaek tih; toe Israel nuiah loe monghaih to om nasoe.
