< Psalms 125 >
1 A song of degrees. They that trust in the Lord, shalbe as mount Zion, which can not be remooued, but remaineth for euer.
A Song of degrees. They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.
2 As the mountaines are about Ierusalem: so is the Lord about his people from henceforth and for euer.
As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surroundeth his people from henceforth even for ever.
3 For the rod of the wicked shall not rest on the lot of the righteous, least the righteous put forth their hand vnto wickednes.
For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands to iniquity.
4 Doe well, O Lord, vnto those that be good and true in their hearts.
Do good, O LORD, to those that are good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.
5 But these that turne aside by their crooked wayes, them shall the Lord leade with the workers of iniquitie: but peace shalbe vpon Israel.
As for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel.
