< Zaburi 125 >
1 Wale wamwaminio Yahwe ni kama mlima Sayuni, hautikisiki, wadumu milele.
A song of ascents. Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, that cannot be moved, but abides forever.
2 Kama milima inavyo izunguka Yerusalemu, hivyo ndivyo Yahwe anavyo wazunguka watu wake sasa na hata milele.
Round Jerusalem are the mountains, and the Lord is round his people from now and for evermore.
3 Fimbo ya uovu haitatawala katika nchi ya wenye haki. Vinginevyo wenye haki wanaweza kukosea.
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 Ee Yahwe, utende wema kwa wale walio wema na wale walio wanyoofu mioyoni mwao.
Do good, O Lord, to the good, and to the true-hearted.
5 Lakini kwa wale wanaogeukia njia zao za upotovu, Yahwe atawaondoa pamoja na watenda maovu. Amani iwe na Israeli.
But those who swerve into crooked ways will the Lord lead away with the workers of evil. Peace be upon Israel.
