Psalm 125

Het Boek

1 Een bedevaartslied. Wie in alles op de HERE vertrouwt, is onwankelbaar als de berg van Jeruzalem, die er voor altijd is. 2 Zoals rondom Jeruzalem bergen liggen, zo is de HERE rondom zijn volk. Niet alleen nu, maar altijd en tot in de eeuwigheid. 3 Want het land van de gelovigen zal niet onder de tirannie van de goddeloze vijand blijven zuchten. De gelovigen zullen dan ook niet komen tot onrechtmatige daden. 4 HERE, wilt U het goede doen voor eerlijke, goede mensen? 5 Als iemand echter van de rechte weg afdwaalt, zal hij, samen met de ongelovigen, door de HERE worden vernietigd. Laat er vrede zijn in Israël!

Psalm 125

English Standard Version

van Crossway

The Lord Surrounds His People

1 A Song of Ascents. Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever. (Ps 25:2; Ps 93:1; Ps 104:5; Ps 120:1; Spr 10:30)

Ps 25:2Ps 93:1Ps 104:5Ps 120:1Spr 10:30

2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore. (2 Kon 6:17; Zach 2:5) 3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous, lest the righteous stretch out their hands to do wrong. (Gen 3:22; Ex 22:8; Ps 16:5; Jes 14:5; Jes 30:30)

Gen 3:22Ex 22:8Ps 16:5Jes 14:5Jes 30:30

4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts! (Ps 7:10; Ps 119:68) 5 But those who turn aside to their crooked ways the Lord will lead away with evildoers! Peace be upon Israel! (Ps 40:4; Ps 92:7; Ps 92:9; Ps 94:4; Ps 128:6; Spr 2:15; Gal 6:16)
