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!

Israel’s Protector
1A song of ascents.
Those trusting in the Lord are like Mount Zion,
unshakable, forever enduring.#Prv 10:25.
2As mountains surround Jerusalem,
the Lord surrounds his people
both now and forever.#Dt 32:11.
3The scepter of the wicked will not prevail
in the land allotted to the just,#The land allotted to the just: lit., “the lot of the righteous.” The promised land was divided among the tribes of Israel by lot (Nm 26:55; Jos 18). The righteous are the members of the people who are obedient to God. If the domination of the wicked were to continue in the land, even the just would be infected by their evil attitudes.
Lest the just themselves
turn their hands to evil.
4Do good, Lord, to the good,
to those who are upright of heart.#Ps 18:25ff.
5But those who turn aside to crooked ways
may the Lord send down with the evildoers.#Prv 3:32.
Peace upon Israel!#Ps 128:6.
