Psalm 125 :: Amplified Bible (AMP)

As the mountains surround Jerusalem,

So the LORD surrounds His people

From this time forth and forever.

For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land of the righteous,

So that the righteous will not reach out their hands to do wrong.

Do good, O LORD, to those who are good

And to those who are upright in their hearts.

But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways [in unresponsiveness to God],

The LORD will lead them away with those who do evil.

Peace be upon Israel.
