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’s Surrounding Presence
A song of the stairway
1Those who trust in the Lord are as unshakable,
as unmovable as mighty Mount Zion!
2Just as the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so the Lord’s wraparound presence
surrounds his people, protecting them now and forever.
3The wicked will not always rule over the godly,
provoking them to do what is evil.
4God, let your goodness be given away to your good people,
to all your righteous ones!
5But those who turn away from truth—
them you will turn away from you, to follow their crooked ways.
You will give them just what they deserve.
May Israel experience peace and prosperity!
