Psalms 125
125
(A song for worship.)
The LORD's people are safe
1Everyone who trusts the LORD
is like Mount Zion
that cannot be shaken
and will stand for ever.
2Just as Jerusalem is protected
by mountains on every side,
the LORD protects his people
by holding them in his arms
now and for ever.
3He won't let the wicked
rule his people
or lead them to do wrong.
4Let's ask the LORD to be kind
to everyone who is good
and completely obeys him.
5When the LORD punishes
the wicked,
he will punish everyone else
who lives a crooked life.
Pray for peace in Israel!

Psalm 125
125
The Lord Surrounds His People
A Song of #[See Ps. 120, title]Ascents.
1Those who #Ps. 25:2, 3 trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion,
which #Ps. 93:1; 104:5; [Prov. 10:30]cannot be moved, but abides forever.
2As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so #[2 Kgs. 6:17; Zech. 2:5]the Lord surrounds his people,
from this time forth and forevermore.
3For #Isa. 14:5 the scepter of wickedness shall not #Isa. 30:30 rest
on #See Ps. 16:5 the land allotted to the righteous,
lest the righteous #Gen. 3:22; Ex. 22:8stretch out
their hands to do wrong.
4 #
Ps. 119:68 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good,
and to those who are #See Ps. 7:10upright in their hearts!
5But those who #See Ps. 40:4 turn aside to their #Prov. 2:15 crooked ways
the Lord will lead away with #Ps. 92:7, 9; 94:4 evildoers!
#
Ps. 128:6; Gal. 6:16 Peace be upon Israel!
