Psalms 125

1 A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, for it is unshakeable and endures forever.

A song of degrees. They that trust in the Lord, shalbe as mount Zion, which can not be remooued, but remaineth for euer.

2 In the same way that the mountains surround Jerusalem, the Lord surrounds his people, now and forever.

As the mountaines are about Ierusalem: so is the Lord about his people from henceforth and for euer.

3 The wicked will not always rule over the land of the faithful, otherwise the faithful might also end up doing wrong.

For the rod of the wicked shall not rest on the lot of the righteous, least the righteous put forth their hand vnto wickednes.

4 Lord, please do good to those who do good, those who sincerely do what is right.

Doe well, O Lord, vnto those that be good and true in their hearts.

5 But as for those who turn aside to follow their own crooked ways—those the Lord will lead them away together with those who do evil. May Israel be at peace!

But these that turne aside by their crooked wayes, them shall the Lord leade with the workers of iniquitie: but peace shalbe vpon Israel.
