1En valfartssang. De, der stoler på Herren, står fast som Zions bjerg. I evighed rokkes de ikke.2Som bjergene omslutter Jerusalem, vil Herren altid omslutte sit folk.3Onde konger skal ikke herske for evigt over det land, Gud gav de gudfrygtige, for ellers ville de glemme deres gudsfrygt.4Herre, vis godhed mod de gode, de, som har et oprigtigt hjerte.5Men de, som slår ind på ondskabens vej, vil Herren jage bort sammen med de onde. Fred være med Israel!
1A Song of Ascents. Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever. (Salm 25,2; Salm 93,1; Salm 104,5; Salm 120,1; Ord 10,30)2As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore. (2.Kong 6,17; Zak 2,5)3For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous, lest the righteous stretch out their hands to do wrong. (1.Mos 3,22; 2.Mos 22,8; Salm 16,5; Es 14,5; Es 30,30)4Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts! (Salm 7,10; Salm 119,68)5But those who turn aside to their crooked ways the Lord will lead away with evildoers! Peace be upon Israel! (Salm 40,4; Salm 92,7; Salm 92,9; Salm 94,4; Salm 128,6; Ord 2,15; Gal 6,16)
