< Psalms 125 >
1 A Song of degrees. They that trust in the LORD, [shall be] as mount Zion, [which] cannot be removed, [but] abideth for ever.
Canticum graduum. Qui confidunt in Domino, sicut mons Sion: non commovebitur in æternum, qui habitat
2 [As] the mountains [are] round Jerusalem, so the LORD [is] around his people from henceforth even for ever.
in Ierusalem. Montes in circuitu eius: et Dominus in circuitu populi sui, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
3 For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands to iniquity.
Quia non relinquet Dominus virgam peccatorum super sortem iustorum: ut non extendant iusti ad iniquitatem manus suas.
4 Do good, O LORD, to [those that] are good, and to [them that are] upright in their hearts.
Benefac Domine bonis, et rectis corde.
5 As for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: [but] peace [shall be] upon Israel.
Declinantes autem in obligationes, adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem: pax super Israel.
