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!

Psalm 125
125
The Lord Is Round about His People
A Song of degrees.
1They that trust in the Lord
shall be as mount Zion,
which cannot be removed,
but abideth for ever.
2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem,
so the Lord is round about his people
from henceforth even for ever.
3For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous;
lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.
4Do good, O Lord, unto those that be good,
and to them that are upright in their hearts.
5As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways,
the Lord shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity:
but peace shall be upon Israel.
