< Psalms 125 >

1 A Song of Ascents. They who trust in Yahweh, [are] like Mount Zion, which shall not be shaken, Age-abidingly, shall it remain.
A Song of Ascents. They that trust in the LORD are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abideth for ever.
2 Jerusalem! mountains, are round about her; and Yahweh, is round about his people, from henceforth even unto times age-abiding.
As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about His people, from this time forth and for ever.
3 For the sceptre of lawlessness shall not remain over the allotment of the righteous, —lest the righteous put forth—unto perversity—their hands.
For the rod of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; that the righteous put not forth their hands unto iniquity.
4 Do good, O Yahweh, unto such as are good, even unto such as are upright in their hearts.
Do good, O LORD, unto the good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.
5 As for them who turn aside unto their crooked ways, Yahweh, will lead them forth, with the workers of iniquity, Prosperity on Israel!
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.
