This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.

Against wicked rulers

Psa 125:1–5

125  A song for walking uphill to Yerushalem.

1 Those who trust in Yahweh

are like Mt. Tsiyyon (Zion) which can’t be shaken—enduring forever.

2 Just like the mountains surround Yerushalem,

so too Yahweh surrounds his people, both now and forever.

3 Wicked rulers must not settle on the land alloted to the righteous,

otherwise those righteous people might end up doing something that they shouldn’t do.

4 Do good, Yahweh, to those who are good

and to those who strive to do what is right.


5 But as for those who choose to turn to crooked paths,

Yahweh will banish them along with those who do evil.

May peace be on Yisra’el.
