Psalmorum 125

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

They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Sion: he shall not be moved for ever that dwelleth

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

In Jerusalem. Mountains are round about it: so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth now and for ever.

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

For the Lord will not leave the rod of sinners upon the lot of the just: that the just may not stretch forth their hands to iniquity.

4 Benefac Domine bonis, et rectis corde.

Do good, O Lord, to those that are good, and to the upright of heart.

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

But such as turn aside into bonds, the Lord shall lead out with the workers of iniquity: peace upon Israel.
