Psalm 125

English Standard Version

125 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!
