Psalm 125

A song for those journeying to worship.

All who have faith in the Eternal stand as Mount Zion:
    unmoved, enduring, eternal.
Just as the mountains around Jerusalem embrace her,
    the Eternal, too, wraps around those who belong to Him—
    for this moment and for every moment to come.
For wickedness will not get the upper hand;
    it shall not rule the land where righteous people live
Lest good people go bad
    and do what is wrong.

Psalm 125

A song of ascents.

Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion,(A)
    which cannot be shaken(B) but endures forever.
As the mountains surround Jerusalem,(C)
    so the Lord surrounds(D) his people
    both now and forevermore.

The scepter(E) of the wicked will not remain(F)
    over the land allotted to the righteous,
for then the righteous might use
    their hands to do evil.(G)
