< Psalms 125 >

1 They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abides for ever.
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 the LORD is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.
In Jerusalem. Mountains are round about it: so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth now and for ever.
3 For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto 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 LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.
Do good, O Lord, to those that are good, and to the upright of heart.
5 As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel.
But such as turn aside into bonds, the Lord shall lead out with the workers of iniquity: peace upon Israel.
