< Psalms 125 >
1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. Those trusting in YHWH [are] as Mount Zion, It is not moved—it abides for all time.
2 Jerusalem! Mountains [are] around her, And YHWH [is] around His people, From now on—even for all time.
3 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 YHWH, to the good, And to the upright in their hearts.
5 As for those turning [to] their crooked ways, YHWH causes them to go with workers of iniquity. Peace on Israel!
