Psalm 125:1-3
EasyEnglish Bible

A song to sing as we climb.

125 People who trust in the Lord are strong,
    like Mount Zion.[a]
Nothing can shake it. It will always be there.
2 The Lord is always near to his people,
    like the mountains round Jerusalem.
He keeps his people safe, now and for ever.[b]
3 Wicked people will not rule over God's own people.
    They will not rule the land where righteous people live.
If they did, the righteous people might also do bad things.
