Psalms



Psalm 125

A song of ascents.

   1 Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion; it cannot be upended and will endure forever.
   2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people, now and forevermore.
   3 Indeed, the scepter of a wicked king will not settle upon the allotted land of the godly. Otherwise the godly might do what is wrong.
   4 Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, to the morally upright!
   5 As for those who are bent on traveling a sinful path, may the LORD remove them, along with those who behave wickedly! May Israel experience peace!
