< Psalms 125 >

1 Those who trust in Adonai are as Mount Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking], which can’t be moved, but remains forever. 2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem [City of peace], so Adonai surrounds his people from this time forward and forever more. 3 For the scepter of ethical wickedness won’t remain over the allotment of the upright; so that the upright won’t use their hands to do evil. 4 Do good, Adonai, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts. 5 But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, Adonai will lead them away with the workers of vain striving of iniquity. Peace be on Israel [God prevails].
