Psalm 125

A Song of Ascents.

125 ¹They that trust in Jehovah

Are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abideth for ever.

²As the mountains are round about Jerusalem,

So Jehovah is round about his people

From this time forth and for evermore.

³For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous;

That the righteous put not forth their hands unto iniquity.

⁴Do good, O Jehovah, unto those that are good,

And to them that are upright in their hearts.

⁵But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways,

Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity.

Peace be upon Israel.
