Psalm 125 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

The LORD Surrounds His People.

Psa 125:1

A Song of Ascents.

Those who trust^H982 in the LORD^H3068

Are like Mount^H2022 Zion^H6726, which cannot^H3808 be moved^H4131 but remains^H3427 forever^H5769.

Psa 125:2

As the mountains^H2022 surround^H5439 Jerusalem^H3389,

So the LORD^H3068 surrounds^H5439 His people^H5971

From this^H6258 time^H6258 and forever^H5704^H5769.

Psa 125:3

For the scepter^H7626 of wickedness^H7562 will not rest^H5117 upon the [fn]land^H1486 of the righteous^H6662,

So^H4616 that^H4616 the righteous^H6662 will not extend^H7971 their hands^H3027 to do wrong^H5766.

Psa 125:4

Do^H3190 good^H3190, LORD^H3068, to those who are good^H2896

And to those who are upright^H3477 in their hearts^H3820.

Psa 125:5

But as for those who turn^H5186 aside^H5186 to their crooked^H6128 ways^H6128,

The LORD^H3068 will lead^H1980 them away with those who practice^H6466 injustice^H205.

Peace^H7965 be upon Israel^H3478.
