Psalm 125

1 They that trust in Jehovah Are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abideth for ever.

2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, So Jehovah is round about his people From this time forth and for evermore.

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.

4 Do good, O Jehovah, unto those that are good, And to them that are upright in their hearts.

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

Psalm 125

A song of ascents.

1 Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion;
it cannot be upended and will endure forever.

2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so the Lord surrounds his people,
now and forevermore.

3 Indeed, the scepter of a wicked king will not settle
upon the allotted land of the godly.
Otherwise the godly might
do what is wrong.

4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good,
to the morally upright!

5 As for those who are bent on traveling a sinful path,
may the Lord remove them, along with those who behave wickedly!
May Israel experience peace!
