Psalms 125

1 They that confide in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved; it abideth for ever.

1They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.

2 Jerusalem! — mountains are round about her, and Jehovah is round about his people, from henceforth and for evermore.

2As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.

3 For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

3For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

4 Do good, O Jehovah, unto the good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

4Do good, O Lord, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

5 But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel!

5As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the Lord shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel.
