Psalms 125

Psalm 125
A pilgrimage song.
1The people who trust in the LORD
are like Mount Zion:
never shaken, lasting forever.
2Mountains surround Jerusalem.
That’s how the LORD surrounds his people
from now until forever from now!
3The wicked rod won’t remain
in the land given to the righteous
so that they don’t use their hands to do anything wrong.#125.3 Heb uncertain
4 LORD, do good to people who are good,
to people whose hearts are right.
5But as for those people who turn to their own twisted ways—
may the LORD march them off with other evildoers!
Peace be on Israel!

Psalms 125
125
Psalm 125
A song for going up to worship.
1Those who trust the Lord are like Mount Zion,
which can never be shaken.
It remains firm forever.
2 ⌞As⌟ the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so the Lord surrounds his people now and forever.
3A wicked ruler will not be allowed to govern
the land set aside for righteous people.
That is why righteous people do not use their power to do wrong.
4Do good, O Lord, to those who are good,
to those whose motives are decent.
5But when people become crooked,
the Lord will lead them away with troublemakers.
Let there be peace in Israel!
