Psalms

125

New Living Translation

1 Those who trust in the LORD are as secure as Mount Zion; they will not be defeated but will endure forever.

2 Just as the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people, both now and forever.

3 The wicked will not rule the land of the godly, for then the godly might be tempted to do wrong.

4 O LORD, do good to those who are good, whose hearts are in tune with you.

5 But banish those who turn to crooked ways, O LORD. Take them away with those who do evil. May Israel have peace!
