<< Psalm 125 >>

The LORD Surrounds His People.

A Song of Ascents.

1 Those who trust in the LORD
         Are as Mount Zion, which cannot be moved but abides forever.
2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
         So the LORD surrounds His people
         From this time forth and forever.
3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest upon the land of the righteous,
         So that the righteous will not put forth their hands to do wrong.
4 Do good, O LORD, to those who are good
         And to those who are upright in their hearts.
5 But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways,
         The LORD will lead them away with the doers of iniquity.
         Peace be upon Israel.
