1 {A Song of degrees.} They that confide in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved; it abideth for ever.

1 שִׁ֗יר הַֽמַּ֫עֲלֹ֥ות הַבֹּטְחִ֥ים בַּיהוָ֑ה כְּֽהַר־צִיֹּ֥ון לֹא־יִ֝מֹּ֗וט לְעֹולָ֥ם יֵשֵֽׁב׃

2 Jerusalem! -- mountains are round about her, and Jehovah is round about his people, from henceforth and for evermore.

2 יְֽרוּשָׁלִַ֗ם הָרִים֮ סָבִ֪יב לָ֥הּ וַ֭יהוָה סָבִ֣יב לְעַמֹּ֑ו מֵ֝עַתָּ֗ה וְעַד־עֹולָֽם׃

3 For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

3 כִּ֤י לֹ֪א יָנ֡וּחַ שֵׁ֤בֶט הָרֶ֗שַׁע עַל֮ גֹּורַ֪ל הַֽצַּדִּ֫יקִ֥ים לְמַ֡עַן לֹא־יִשְׁלְח֖וּ הַצַּדִּיקִ֨ים בְּעַוְלָ֬תָה יְדֵיהֶֽם׃

4 Do good, O Jehovah, unto the good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

4 הֵיטִ֣יבָה יְ֭הוָה לַטֹּובִ֑ים וְ֝לִֽישָׁרִ֗ים בְּלִבֹּותָֽם׃

5 But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel!

5 וְהַמַּטִּ֤ים עַֽקַלְקַלֹּותָ֗ם יֹולִיכֵ֣ם יְ֭הוָה אֶת־פֹּעֲלֵ֣י הָאָ֑וֶן לֹ֗ום עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
