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
The Lord Surrounds His People
A song of ascents.
1Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion.
It cannot be moved; it abides forever.
2As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so the Lord surrounds His people,
both now and forevermore.
3For the scepter of the wicked will not rest
upon the land allotted to the righteous,
so that the righteous will not put forth
their hands to injustice.
4Do good, O Lord, to those who are good,
and to the upright in heart.
5But those who turn to crooked ways
the Lord will banish with the evildoers.
Peace be upon Israel.
