PSALM 125

Blessed are they that trust in the Lord-Peace shall be upon Israel.

A SONG OF DEGREES.

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

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

  3 For 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 Lord, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

  5 As 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.
