Psalms 125 — 4 originals side by side

Versification differs between traditions. Columns are aligned by verse number; where a text has no such verse the cell is left blank rather than forced into line. Tap any word for a gloss.

⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.

125:1
שִׁ֗יר הַֽמַּ֫עֲל֥וֹת הַבֹּטְחִ֥ים בַּיהֹוָ֑ה כְּֽהַר־צִיּ֥וֹן לֹא־יִ֝מּ֗וֹט לְעוֹלָ֥ם יֵשֵֽׁב׃
ᾠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν οἱ πεποιθότες ἐπὶ κύριον ὡς ὄρος Σιων οὐ σαλευθήσεται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ὁ κατοικῶν Ιερουσαλημ
Canticum graduum. Qui confidunt in Domino, sicut mons Sion : non commovebitur in aeternum, qui habitat
ማኅሌት ፡ ዘበመዓርጊሁ ። እለ ፡ ተወከሉ ፡ በእግዚአብሔር ፡ ከመ ፡ ደብረ ፡ ጽዮን ፤ ኢይትሀወክ ፡ ለዓለም ፡ ዘየኀድር ፡ ውስተ ፡ ኢየሩሳሌም ።
Those who trust in Yahweh are as Mount Zion, which can’t be moved, but remains forever.
125:2
יְֽרוּשָׁלַ֗͏ִם הָרִים֮ סָבִ֢יב לָ֥֫הּ וַ֭יהֹוָה סָבִ֣יב לְעַמּ֑וֹ מֵ֝עַתָּ֗ה וְעַד־עוֹלָֽם׃
ὄρη κύκλῳ αὐτῆς καὶ κύριος κύκλῳ τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν καὶ ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος
in Jerusalem. Montes in circuitu ejus ; et Dominus in circuitu populi sui, ex hoc nunc et usque in saeculum.
አድባር ፡ የዐውዳ ፤ ወእግዚአብሔር ፡ ይሜግብ ፡ ሕዝቦ ፡ እምይእዜ ፡ ወእስከ ፡ ለዓለም ።
As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so Yahweh surrounds his people from this time forward and forever more.
125:3
כִּ֤י לֹ֪א יָנ֡וּחַ שֵׁ֤בֶט הָרֶ֗שַׁע עַל֮ גּוֹרַ֢ל הַֽצַּדִּ֫יקִ֥ים לְמַ֡עַן לֹא־יִשְׁלְח֖וּ הַצַּדִּיקִ֨ים בְּעַוְלָ֬תָה יְדֵיהֶֽם׃
ὅτι οὐκ ἀφήσει τὴν ῥάβδον τῶν ἁμαρτωλῶν ἐπὶ τὸν κλῆρον τῶν δικαίων ὅπως ἂν μὴ ἐκτείνωσιν οἱ δίκαιοι ἐν ἀνομίᾳ χεῖρας αὐτῶν
Quia non relinquet Dominus virgam peccatorum super sortem justorum : ut non extendant justi ad iniquitatem manus suas,
እስመ ፡ ኢየኀድግ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ በትረ ፡ ኃጥኣን ፡ ዲበ ፡ መክፈልተ ፡ ጻድቃን ፤ ከመ ፡ ኢያንሥኡ ፡ እደዊሆሙ ፡ ጻድቃን ፡ በዐመፃ ።
For 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.
125:4
הֵיטִ֣יבָה יְ֭הֹוָה לַטּוֹבִ֑ים וְ֝לִישָׁרִ֗ים בְּלִבּוֹתָֽם׃
ἀγάθυνον κύριε τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς καὶ τοῖς εὐθέσι τῇ καρδίᾳ
benefac, Domine, bonis, et rectis corde.
አሠኒ ፡ እግዚኦ ፡ ለኄራን ፡ ወለርቱዓነ ፡ ልብ ።
Do good, Yahweh, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts.
125:5
וְהַמַּטִּ֤ים עֲֽקַלְקַלּוֹתָ֗ם יוֹלִיכֵ֣ם יְ֭הֹוָה אֶת־פֹּעֲלֵ֣י הָאָ֑וֶן שָׁ֝ל֗וֹם עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ {פ}
τοὺς δὲ ἐκκλίνοντας εἰς τὰς στραγγαλιὰς ἀπάξει κύριος μετὰ τῶν ἐργαζομένων τὴν ἀνομίαν εἰρήνη ἐπὶ τὸν Ισραηλ
Declinantes autem in obligationes, adducet Dominus cum operantibus iniquitatem. Pax super Israël !
ወእለሰ ፡ ይትመየጡ ፡ ውስተ ፡ ፁግ ፤ ይወስዶሙ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ ምስለ ፡ ገበርተ ፡ ዐመፃ ። ሰላም ፡ ላዕለ ፡ አስራኤል ።
But as for those who turn away to their crooked ways, Yahweh will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be on Israel.
