Psalmorum 125

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

A Song of degrees. They that confide in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved; it abideth for ever.

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

Jerusalem! — mountains are round about her, and Jehovah is round about his people, from henceforth and for evermore.

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

For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

4 benefac Domine bonis et rectis corde

Do good, O Jehovah, unto the good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

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

But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel!
