A Song of Ascents

God is Secure

125 Those who are trusting in the Lord
    are like Mount Zion, which cannot be overthrown.
        They remain forever.
Just as mountains encircle Jerusalem,
    so the Lord encircles his people,
        from now to eternity.

For evil’s scepter will not rest
    on the land that has been allotted to the righteous,
and so the righteous will not direct themselves[a] to do wrong.
