English Standard Version

Psalms 125

   |   

The Lord Surrounds His People

A Song of (a)Ascents.

1 Those who (b)trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion,
    which (c)cannot be moved, but abides forever.
2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
    so (d)the Lord surrounds his people,
    from this time forth and forevermore.
3 For (e)the scepter of wickedness shall not (f)rest
    on (g)the land allotted to the righteous,
lest the righteous (h)stretch out
    their hands to do wrong.
4 (i)Do good, O Lord, to those who are good,
    and to those who are (j)upright in their hearts!
5 But those who (k)turn aside to their (l)crooked ways
    the Lord will lead away with (m)evildoers!
    (n)Peace be upon Israel!
