Zaburi 125

1 Wale wamwaminio Yahwe ni kama mlima Sayuni, hautikisiki, wadumu milele.

A Song of Ascents. Those who trust in the LORD are as Mount Zion, which can’t be moved, but remains forever.

2 Kama milima inavyo izunguka Yerusalemu, hivyo ndivyo Yahwe anavyo wazunguka watu wake sasa na hata milele.

As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people from this time forward and forever more.

3 Fimbo ya uovu haitatawala katika nchi ya wenye haki. Vinginevyo wenye haki wanaweza kukosea.

For the scepter of wickedness won’t remain over the allotment of the righteous, so that the righteous won’t use their hands to do evil.

4 Ee Yahwe, utende wema kwa wale walio wema na wale walio wanyoofu mioyoni mwao.

Do good, LORD, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts.

5 Lakini kwa wale wanaogeukia njia zao za upotovu, Yahwe atawaondoa pamoja na watenda maovu. Amani iwe na Israeli.

But as for those who turn away to their crooked ways, the LORD will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be on Israel.
