Psalmorum 125

1 canticum graduum qui confidunt in Domino sicut mons Sion non commovebitur in aeternum qui habitat

A song of ascents. Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion. It cannot be moved; it abides forever.

2 in Hierusalem montes in circuitu eius et Dominus in circuitu populi sui ex hoc nunc et usque in saeculum

As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds His people, both now and forevermore.

3 quia non relinquet virgam peccatorum super sortem iustorum ut non extendant iusti ad iniquitatem manus suas

For the scepter of the wicked will not rest upon the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not put forth their hands to injustice.

4 benefac Domine bonis et rectis corde

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

5 declinantes autem in obligationes adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem pax super Israhel

But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be upon Israel.
