Psalms 125

1 A Song of degrees. They that trust in the LORD, [shall be] as mount Zion, [which] cannot be removed, [but] abideth 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 Jerusalem, so the LORD [is] around 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 to 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, to [those that] are 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 to 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.
