Psalm 125 | English Standard Version

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. 2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore. 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. 4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts! 5 But those who turn aside to their crooked ways the Lord will lead away with evildoers! Peace be upon Israel!

Nya Levande Bibeln

Herren beskyddar sitt folk

1 De som litar på Herren står fasta som berget Sion och kan aldrig rubbas. 2 Liksom bergen omger och skyddar Jerusalem, så omsluter och beskyddar Herren sitt folk. 3 Ogudaktiga härskare ska inte längre regera över vårt land, det land som Gud gav till våra förfäder. Då kunde det gå så illa att de lockade de rättfärdiga till att göra det som är orätt. 4 Herre, gör gott mot dem som är goda, mot alla som är uppriktiga och ärliga. 5 Men de som viker av från den rätta vägen ska du förgöra tillsammans med alla andra förbrytare. Låt Israel få leva i stillhet och fred!
