PSALM 125
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1They in the Lord that firmly trust
shall be like Sion hill,
Which at no time can be remov'd,
but standeth ever still.
2As round about Jerusalem
the mountains stand alway,
The Lord his folk doth compass so,
from henceforth and for aye.
3For ill men's rod upon the lot
of just men shall not lie;
Lest righteous men stretch
forth their hands unto iniquity.
4Do thou to all those that be good
thy goodness, Lord, impart;
And do thou good to those that are
upright within their heart.
5But as for such as turn aside
after their crooked way,
God shall lead forth with wicked men:
on Isr'el peace shall stay.

Psalms 125
125
God Protects Those Who Trust Him
A song for going up to worship.
1Those who trust the Lord are like Mount Zion,
which sits unmoved forever.
2As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
the Lord surrounds his people
now and forever.
3The wicked will not rule
over those who do right.
If they did, the people who do right
might use their power to do evil.
4Lord, be good to those who are good,
whose hearts are honest.
5But, Lord, when you remove those who do evil,
also remove those who stop following you.
Let there be peace in Israel.
