< Psalms 125 >

1 A Song of Ascents. They that trust in the LORD are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abideth for ever.
A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. Those trusting in YHWH [are] as Mount Zion, It is not moved—it abides for all time.
2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about His people, from this time forth and for ever.
Jerusalem! Mountains [are] around her, And YHWH [is] around His people, From now on—even for all time.
3 For the rod of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; that the righteous put not forth their hands unto iniquity.
For the rod of wickedness does not rest on the lot of the righteous, That the righteous do not put forth their hands on iniquity.
4 Do good, O LORD, unto the good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.
Do good, O YHWH, to the good, And to the upright in their hearts.
5 But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel.
As for those turning [to] their crooked ways, YHWH causes them to go with workers of iniquity. Peace on Israel!
