1 A Song of the going up. Those whose hope is in the Lord are like the mountain of Zion, which may not be moved, but keeps its place for ever.2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people, from this time and for ever.3 For the rod of sinners will not be resting on the heritage of the upright; so that the upright may not put out their hands to evil.4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in heart.5 But as for such as are turned out of the straight way, the Lord will take them away with the workers of evil. Let peace be on Israel.

1 'n Bedevaartslied. Die wat op die HERE vertrou, is soos die berg Sion wat nie wankel nie, maar bly tot in ewigheid.2 Rondom Jerusalem is berge; so is die HERE rondom sy volk van nou af tot in ewigheid.3 Want die septer van goddeloosheid sal nie rus op die erfdeel van die regverdiges nie, sodat die regverdiges hulle hande nie sal uitsteek na onreg nie.4 HERE, doen goed aan die goeies en aan die wat opreg is in hulle harte.5 Maar die wat langs krom paaie wegdraai, sal die HERE laat vergaan saam met die werkers van ongeregtigheid. Vrede oor Israel!
