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

¹ A Song of Ascents.
Those who trust in the Lord
Are as 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 forever.

³ For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest upon the land of the righteous,
So that the righteous will not put forth 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 as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways,
The Lord will lead them away with the doers of iniquity.
Peace be upon Israel.

¹ A Song of Ascents.
When the Lord brought back the captive ones of Zion,
We were like those who dream.
