Salmos 125

1 (Shir HaMa’alot [Song of Ascents])

They that trust in Hashem

shall be as Mount Tziyon, which is immoveable,

and abideth l’olam.

2 As harim (the mountains) surround Yerushalayim,

so Hashem surrounds His people

from henceforth v’ad olam (and to forever).

3 For the shevet (scepter) of the resha shall not rest

upon the goral (allotment, property) of the tzaddikim;

lest the tzaddikim put forth

their hands unto iniquity.

4 Do good, Hashem, unto the tovim,

and to them that are upright in their hearts.

5 As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways,

Hashem shall turn them away with the workers of iniquity;

but shalom shall be upon Yisroel.
