PSALM 125 (meter: 6 6 6 6)
1 All those who trust the LORD
Like Zion are secure,
Which never can be moved
But always will endure.
2 Just as the mountains stand
Around Jerusalem,
The LORD surrounds his own,
For ever guarding them.
3 The wicked’s evil rule
Will not oppress for long
The righteous and their land,
Lest righteous folk do wrong.
4 On all those who are good
Bestow your goodness, LORD—
To those of upright heart
Who reverence your word.
5 But God will banish those
Who choose a crooked way;
They’ll share the sinner’s fate.
Let peace on Israel stay!
