PSALM 125

A Song of Degrees

1 They who confide in Jehovah are as mount Zion, Which shall not be removed, but shall abide for ever.

2 As the mountains are about Jerusalem, So Jehovah is round about his people, From henceforth, and for ever.

3 For rest not shall the scepter of the ungodly ones upon the lot of the just, Lest the just ones should put forth to iniquity their hands.

4 Do good, O Jehovah! to the good, And to those who are upright in their hearts.

5 But those who turn aside into their crooked paths, Jehovah shall make them walk with the workers of iniquity: But there shall be peace upon Israel.
