Psalm 125:1-Psalm 126:1 - Israel's Stability

1 A song of ascents.Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion.
It cannot be shaken; it remains forever.
2 Jerusalem—the mountains surround her.
And the Lord surrounds His people,
both now and forever.

3 The scepter of the wicked will not remain
over the land allotted to the righteous,
so that the righteous will not apply their hands to injustice.
4 Do what is good, Lord, to the good,
to those whose hearts are upright.
5 But as for those who turn aside to crooked ways,
the Lord will banish them with the evildoers.


Peace be with Israel.

1 A song of ascents.When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion,
we were like those who dream.
