Psalms 125 New English Translation (NET)

Psalm 125

1. Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion;it cannot be upended and will endure forever.

2. As the mountains surround Jerusalem,so the Lord surrounds his people,now and forevermore.

3. Indeed, the scepter of a wicked king will not settleupon the allotted land of the godly.Otherwise the godly mightdo what is wrong.

4. Do good, O Lord, to those who are good,to the morally upright!

5. As for those who are bent on traveling a sinful path,may the Lord remove them, along with those who behave wickedly!May Israel experience peace!
