The Holy Bible
The Book of Psalms
Psalm 125

  

God is the Protector and the Security of His People

A Song of Ascents.

1THOSE who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion,
which cannot be moved, but endures forever.

2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so the Lord surrounds His people, both now and forever.   3 The sceptre of the wicked will not rest
over the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not put forth
their hands to do evil.   4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good,
to those who are upright in their hearts. 5 But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways,
the Lord will banish them with the evildoers.   Peace be upon Israel.
