< Psalmorum 125 >

1 Canticum graduum. Qui confidunt in Domino, sicut mons Sion: non commovebitur in æternum, qui habitat
A Song of degrees. They that trust in the LORD, [shall be] as mount Zion, [which] cannot be removed, [but] abideth for ever.
2 in Jerusalem. Montes in circuitu ejus; et Dominus in circuitu populi sui, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
[As] the mountains [are] round Jerusalem, so the LORD [is] around his people from henceforth even for ever.
3 Quia non relinquet Dominus virgam peccatorum super sortem justorum: ut non extendant justi ad iniquitatem manus suas,
For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands to iniquity.
4 benefac, Domine, bonis, et rectis corde.
Do good, O LORD, to [those that] are good, and to [them that are] upright in their hearts.
5 Declinantes autem in obligationes, adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem. Pax super Israël!
As for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: [but] peace [shall be] upon Israel.
