< Psalms 125 >

1 Those who trust in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever.
They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Sion: he shall not be moved for ever that dwelleth
2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so Jehovah is round about his people from this time forth and for evermore.
In Jerusalem. Mountains are round about it: so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth now and for ever.
3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous, that the righteous not put forth their hands to iniquity.
For the Lord will not leave the rod of sinners upon the lot of the just: that the just may not stretch forth their hands to iniquity.
4 Do good, O Jehovah, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts.
Do good, O Lord, to those that are good, and to the upright of heart.
5 But as for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel.
But such as turn aside into bonds, the Lord shall lead out with the workers of iniquity: peace upon Israel.
