Mapisarema 125

1 Rwiyo rworwendo. Vanovimba naJehovha vakafanana neGomo reZioni, risingazungunuswi asi rinogara nokusingaperi.

A song of ascents. Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, that cannot be moved, but abides forever.

2 Sokupoteredzwa kwakaitwa Jerusarema namakomo, saizvozvo Jehovha anopoteredza vanhu vake kubva zvino nokusingaperi.

Round Jerusalem are the mountains, and the Lord is round his people from now and for evermore.

3 Tsvimbo yavasakarurama haingagari pamusoro penyika yakagoverwa vakarurama, nokuti ipapo vakarurama vangazotambanudzira maoko avo kuita zvakaipa.

For he will not suffer the sceptre of wrong to rest on the land allotted to the righteous; else the righteous might put forth their own hand to evil.

4 Haiwa Jehovha, itirai zvakanaka, kuna avo vakanaka, kuna avo vane mwoyo yakarurama.

Do good, O Lord, to the good, and to the true-hearted.

5 Asi avo vanotsaukira kunzira dzakaminama, Jehovha achavaparadza pamwe chete navaiti vezvakaipa. Rugare ngaruve pana Israeri.

But those who swerve into crooked ways will the Lord lead away with the workers of evil. Peace be upon Israel.
