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, that cannot be moved, but 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.

Round Jerusalem are the mountains, and the Lord is round his people from now and for evermore.

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 he will not suffer the sceptre of wrong to rest on the land allotted to the righteous; else the righteous might put forth their own hand to evil.

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

Do good, O Lord, to the good, and to the true-hearted.

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

But those who swerve into crooked ways will the Lord lead away with the workers of evil. Peace be upon Israel.
