Psalmorum 125

1 Canticum graduum. Qui confidunt in Domino, sicut mons Sion: non commovebitur in aeternum, qui habitat

A Song of the going up. Those whose hope is in the Lord are like the mountain of Zion, which may not be moved, but keeps its place for ever.

2 in Ierusalem. Montes in circuitu eius: et Dominus in circuitu populi sui, ex hoc nunc et usque in saeculum.

As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people, from this time and for ever.

3 Quia non relinquet Dominus virgam peccatorum super sortem iustorum: ut non extendant iusti ad iniquitatem manus suas.

For the rod of sinners will not be resting on the heritage of the upright; so that the upright may not put out their hands to evil.

4 Benefac Domine bonis, et rectis corde.

Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in heart.

5 Declinantes autem in obligationes, adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem: pax super Israel.

But as for such as are turned out of the straight way, the Lord will take them away with the workers of evil. Let peace be on Israel.
