Mezmurlar 124

¹Yükseliş ezgisi. Rabbe güvenenler Siyon Dağı gibidir; Yeruşalimde ikamet eden asla sarsılmayacak, sonsuza dek kalacaktır.

²Dağlar Yeruşalimin çevresindedir; Rab de şimdiden sonsuza dek halkının çevresindedir.

³Çünkü doğrular ellerini yasasızlıklara uzatmasınlar diye, Rab günahkarların asasını doğruların payı üzerinde bırakmayacaktır.

⁴Ey Rab, iyilik et iyi olanlara ve yürekten dürüst olanlara.

⁵Dolambaçlı yollara sapanları ise Rab, yasasızlık işleyenlerle birlikte sürüp atacaktır. Esenlik olsun İsrail üzerine!

¹᾿ῼδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν. - ΟΙ ΠΕΠΟΙΘΟΤΕΣ ἐπὶ Κύριον ὡς ὄρος Σιών· οὐ σαλευθήσεται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ὁ κατοικῶν ῾Ιερουσαλήμ.

²ὄρη κύκλῳ αὐτῆς, καὶ ὁ Κύριος κύκλῳ τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν καὶ ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος.

³ὅτι οὐκ ἀφήσει Κύριος τὴν ῥάβδον τῶν ἁμαρτωλῶν ἐπὶ τὸν κλῆρον τῶν δικαίων, ὅπως ἂν μὴ ἐκτείνωσιν οἱ δίκαιοι ἐν ἀνομίαις χεῖρας αὐτῶν.

⁴ἀγάθυνον, Κύριε, τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς καὶ τοῖς εὐθέσι τῇ καρδίᾳ·

⁵τοὺς δὲ ἐκκλίνοντας εἰς τὰς στραγγαλιὰς ἀπάξει Κύριος μετὰ τῶν ἐργαζομένων τὴν ἀνομίαν εἰρήνη ἐπὶ τὸν ᾿Ισραήλ.

¹[A Song of Degrees.] They that trust in the Lord [shall be] as mount Sion: he that dwells in Jerusalem shall never be moved.

²The mountains are round about her, and [so] the Lord is round about his people, from henceforth and even for ever.

³For the Lord will not allow the rod of sinners to be upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous should stretch forth their hands to iniquity.

⁴Do good, O Lord, to them [that are] good, and to them [that are] upright in heart.

⁵But them that turn aside to crooked ways the Lord will lead away with the workers of iniquity: [but] peace [shall be] upon Israel.
