1 T hose who trust in the Lord Are like Mount Zion, Which cannot be moved, but abides forever.

2 A s the mountains surround Jerusalem, So the Lord surrounds His people From this time forth and forever.

3 F or the scepter of wickedness shall not rest On the land allotted to the righteous, Lest the righteous reach out their hands to iniquity.

4 D o good, O Lord, to those who are good, And to those who are upright in their hearts.

5 A s for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, The Lord shall lead them away With the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel!
