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 Jehovah [are] as Mount Zion, It is not moved — to the age it abideth.

2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people, from this time forth and for evermore.

Jerusalem! mountains [are] round about her, And Jehovah [is] round about His people, From henceforth even unto the age.

3 For the sceptre 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 resteth not On the lot of the righteous, That the righteous put not forth on iniquity their hands.

4 Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

Do good, O Jehovah, to the good, And to the upright in their hearts.

5 But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel.

As to those turning [to] their crooked ways, Jehovah causeth them to go with workers of iniquity. Peace on Israel!
