< Sòm 125 >
1 Yon chan pou monte vè tanp lan. (Sila) ki mete konfyans yo nan SENYÈ a tankou Mòn Sion, ki pa kab deplase, men ki dire jis pou tout tan.
A Song of degrees. They that confide in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved; it abideth for ever.
2 Kon mòn antoure Jérusalem yo, se konsa SENYÈ a antoure pèp Li a depi moman sa a, e jis rive pou tout tan.
Jerusalem! — mountains are round about her, and Jehovah is round about his people, from henceforth and for evermore.
3 Paske baton wayal plen mechanste p ap poze sou peyi a moun ladwati yo, jis pou moun dwat yo pa leve men yo pou fè mal.
For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.
4 Fè byen, SENYÈ, a (sila) ki bon yo, ak (sila) ki dwat nan kè yo.
Do good, O Jehovah, unto the good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.
5 Men pou (sila) ki vire akote pou chemen kwochi pa yo, SENYÈ a va mennen yo sòti avèk (sila) ki fè inikite yo. Ke lapè rete sou Israël.
But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel!
