< Psalmorum 125 >

1 Canticum graduum. Qui confidunt in Domino, sicut mons Sion: non commovebitur in æternum, qui habitat
They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but stays for ever.
2 in Ierusalem. Montes in circuitu eius: et Dominus in circuitu populi sui, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people from now on even for ever.
3 Quia non relinquet Dominus virgam peccatorum super sortem iustorum: ut non extendant iusti ad iniquitatem manus suas.
For the rod of the wicked shall not rest on the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands to iniquity.
4 Benefac Domine bonis, et rectis corde.
Do good, O LORD, to those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.
5 Declinantes autem in obligationes, adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem: pax super Israel.
As for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be on Israel.
