Psalm 125

¹Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion,

which cannot be shaken but endures forever.

²As the mountains surround Jerusalem,

so the Lord surrounds his people

both now and forevermore.

³The scepter of the wicked will not remain

over the land allotted to the righteous,

for then the righteous might use

their hands to do evil.

⁴Lord , do good to those who are good,

to those who are upright in heart.

⁵But those who turn to crooked ways

the Lord will banish with the evildoers.

Peace be on Israel.
