Psalms
Psalms 125
A song of ascents.
1 Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion. The one who lives in Jerusalem will never be shaken.
2 Mountains surround her, and the Lord surrounds his people from now on and forever.
3 The Lord will not allow sinners’ rod to rest on the portion of the righteous, so the righteous do not stretch out their hands in lawlessness.
4 Lord, do good to those who are good and upright in heart.
5 But those who turn aside into twisted paths, the Lord will lead away with those who practice lawlessness. Peace be upon Israel.
