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 Jehovah are as Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but remains 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 Jehovah surrounds his people from this time forth 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 wickedness won't remain over the allotment of the righteous; so that the righteous won't use their hands to do evil.

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

Do good, Jehovah, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts.

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

But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them away with evildoers. Peace be on Israel.
