Psalm 125

1 They that trust in the Lord are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abideth for ever.

2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people, from this time forth and for evermore.

3 For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; that the righteous put not forth their hands unto iniquity.

4 Do good, O Lord, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

5 But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the Lord shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel.
