Psalm 125 | English Standard Version

The Lord Surrounds His People

1 A Song of Ascents. Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever. 2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore. 3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous, lest the righteous stretch out their hands to do wrong. 4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts! 5 But those who turn aside to their crooked ways the Lord will lead away with evildoers! Peace be upon Israel!

New International Reader’s Version

A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord.

1 Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion. They will always be secure. They will last for ever. 2 Like the mountains around Jerusalem, the LORD is all around his people both now and for ever. 3 Evil people will not always rule the land the LORD gave to those who do right. If they did, those who do right might do what is evil. 4 LORD, do good to those who are good. Do good to those whose hearts are honest. 5 But the LORD will drive out those who have taken crooked paths. He will drive them out with those who do evil things. May Israel enjoy peace.
