Psalm 125

Complete Jewish Bible

125 ⁽⁰⁾A song of ascents:

⁽¹⁾Those who trust in Adonai
are like Mount Tziyon,
which cannot be moved
but remains forever.

²Yerushalayim!
Mountains all around it!
Thus Adonai is around his people
henceforth and forever.

³For the scepter of wickedness
will not rule the inheritance of the righteous,
so that the righteous will not themselves
turn their hands to evil.
⁴Do good, Adonai, to the good,
to those upright in their hearts.
⁵But as for those who turn aside
to their own crooked ways,
may Adonai turn them away,
along with those who do evil.
