1Those who trust in Yahweh are as Mount Zion, which can’t be moved, but remains forever.
1(Sang til Festrejserne.) De der stoler På HERREN, er som Zions bjerg, der aldrig i evighed rokkes.
2As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so Yahweh surrounds his people from this time forth and forevermore.
2Jerusalem ligger hegnet af Bjerge; og HERREN hegner sit Folk fra nu og til evig Tid :
3For the scepter of wickedness won’t remain over the allotment of the righteous; so that the righteous won’t use their hands to do evil.
3Han lader ej Gudløsheds Herskerskerstav tynge retfærdiges Lod, at retfærdige ikke skal udrække Hånden til Uret.
4Do good, Yahweh, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts.
4HERRE, vær god mod de gode, de oprigtige af Hjertet;
5But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, Yahweh will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be on Israel.
5men dem, der slår ind på krogveje, dem bortdrive HERREN tillige med Udådsmænd. Fred over Israel!
