< Zaburi 125 >
1 Wimbo wa kwenda juu. Wale wamtumainio Bwana ni kama mlima Sayuni, ambao hauwezi kutikisika, bali wadumu milele.
Those who trust in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever.
2 Kama milima inavyozunguka Yerusalemu, ndivyo Bwana anavyowazunguka watu wake sasa na hata milele.
As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so Jehovah is round about his people from this time forth and for evermore.
3 Fimbo ya waovu haitadumu juu ya nchi waliopewa wenye haki, ili wenye haki wasije wakatumia mikono yao kutenda ubaya.
For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous, that the righteous not put forth their hands to iniquity.
4 Ee Bwana, watendee mema walio wema, wale walio wanyofu wa moyo.
Do good, O Jehovah, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts.
5 Bali wale wanaogeukia njia zilizopotoka, Bwana atawafukuza pamoja na watenda mabaya. Amani iwe juu ya Israeli.
But as for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel.
