Psalms 125

1 `The song of greces. Thei that tristen in the Lord ben as the hil of Syon; he schal not be moued with outen ende,

A song of ascents. Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion. It cannot be moved; it abides forever.

2 that dwellith in Jerusalem. Hillis ben in the cumpas of it, and the Lord is in the cumpas of his puple; fro this tyme now and in to the world.

As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds His people, both now and forevermore.

3 For the Lord schal not leeue the yerde of synneris on the part of iust men; that iust men holde not forth her hondis to wickidnesse.

For the scepter of the wicked will not rest upon the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not put forth their hands to injustice.

4 Lord, do thou wel; to good men, and of riytful herte.

Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to the upright in heart.

5 But the Lord schal lede them that bowen in to obligaciouns, with hem that worchen wickidnesse; pees be on Israel.

But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be upon Israel.
