A Song of the Ascents.
125 Those who trust in Jehovah+
Are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken
But endures forever.+
2 Just as mountains surround Jerusalem,+
So Jehovah surrounds his people+
From now on and forever.
3 The scepter of wickedness will not remain upon the land allotted to the righteous,+
So that the righteous do not turn to doing what is wrong.+
4 Do good, O Jehovah, to those who are good,+
To those who are upright in heart.+
5 As for those who turn aside to their crooked ways,
Jehovah will remove them along with the wrongdoers.+
May there be peace upon Israel.
