Psalm 125

1 {a song of degrees } 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
