Psalms 125
125
A Song of Ascents.
1Those who trust in Yahweh are as Mount Zion,
which can’t be moved, but remains forever.
2As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so Yahweh surrounds his people from this time forward and forever more.
3For the scepter of wickedness won’t remain over the allotment of the righteous,
so that the righteous won’t use their hands to do evil.
4Do good, Yahweh, to those who are good,
to those who are upright in their hearts.
5But as for those who turn away to their crooked ways,
Yahweh will lead them away with the workers of iniquity.
Peace be on Israel.

Psalms 125
125
The Security of God's People
1Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion,
which can never be shaken, never be moved.
2As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so the LORD surrounds his people
now and for ever.
3The wicked will not always rule over the land of the righteous;
if they did, the righteous themselves might do evil.
4 LORD, do good to those who are good,
to those who obey your commands.
5But when you punish the wicked,
punish also those who abandon your ways.
Peace be with Israel!
