Psalms 125

   |   

Yahweh Surrounds His People

A Song of Ascents.

1 Those who trust in Yahweh
Are as Mount Zion, which (C1)will not be shaken but (C2)will abide forever.

2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
So (C1)Yahweh surrounds His people
(C2)From now until forever.

3 For the (C1)scepter of wickedness shall not rest upon the (F1)land of the righteous,
So that the righteous (C2)would not send forth their hands in unrighteousness.

4 (C1)Do good, O Yahweh, to those who are good
And to those who are (C2)upright in their hearts.

5 But as for those who (C1)turn aside to their (C2)crooked ways,
Yahweh will lead them away with the (C3)workers of iniquity.
(C4)Peace be upon Israel.
