< Psalms 125 >
1 A song of ascents. Those who trust in Yahweh are like Mount Zion, unshakable, forever enduring.
Rwiyo rworwendo. Vanovimba naJehovha vakafanana neGomo reZioni, risingazungunuswi asi rinogara nokusingaperi.
2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so Yahweh surrounds his people now and forever.
Sokupoteredzwa kwakaitwa Jerusarema namakomo, saizvozvo Jehovha anopoteredza vanhu vake kubva zvino nokusingaperi.
3 The scepter of wickedness must not rule in the land of the righteous. Otherwise the righteous might do what is wrong.
Tsvimbo yavasakarurama haingagari pamusoro penyika yakagoverwa vakarurama, nokuti ipapo vakarurama vangazotambanudzira maoko avo kuita zvakaipa.
4 Do good, Yahweh, to those who are good and to those who are upright in their hearts.
Haiwa Jehovha, itirai zvakanaka, kuna avo vakanaka, kuna avo vane mwoyo yakarurama.
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.
Asi avo vanotsaukira kunzira dzakaminama, Jehovha achavaparadza pamwe chete navaiti vezvakaipa. Rugare ngaruve pana Israeri.
