Psalms 125
Psalm 125
Israel’s Stability
A song of ascents.
1Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion. It cannot be shaken; it remains forever.23The mountains surround Jerusalem and the Lord surrounds his people, both now and forever.4
5The scepter of the wicked will not remain over the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not apply their hands to injustice.6
7Do what is good, Lord, to the good, to those whose hearts are upright.8
9But as for those who turn aside to crooked ways, the Lord will banish them with the evildoers. Peace be with Israel.10
