Psalms 125
The LORD Surrounds His People
A song of ascents.
1As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds His people, both now and forevermore.2For the scepter of the wicked will not rest upon the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not put forth their hands to injustice.
3Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to the upright in heart.
4But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be upon Israel.
