< 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 psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” They who trust in the LORD shall be as Mount Zion, Which cannot be moved, which standeth 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.
As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, So the LORD is round about his people, Henceforth even for ever!
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 the wicked shall not remain upon the portion of the righteous, Lest the righteous put forth their hands to iniquity.
4 Fè byen, SENYÈ, a (sila) ki bon yo, ak (sila) ki dwat nan kè yo.
Do good, O LORD! to the good, To them that are upright in heart!
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 such as turn aside to their crooked ways, -May the LORD destroy them with the evil-doers! Peace be to Israel!
