1 T hose who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved but stands forever.

They that trust in Jehovah Are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abideth for ever.

2 T he Lord is around His people like the mountains are around Jerusalem, now and forever.

As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, So Jehovah is round about his people From this time forth and for evermore.

3 F or the sinful will not rule over the land of those who are right with God. So those who are right and good may not use their hands to do wrong.

For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; That the righteous put not forth their hands unto iniquity.

4 O Lord, do good to those who are good, and to those who are right in their hearts.

Do good, O Jehovah, unto those that are good, And to them that are upright in their hearts.

5 B ut the Lord will let all those who turn aside to their sinful ways go with those who are sinners. Peace be upon Israel.

But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel.
