1
A song of ascents: Those who trust in ADONAI are like Mount Tziyon, which cannot be moved but remains forever.
2
Yerushalayim! Mountains all around it! Thus ADONAI is around his people henceforth and forever.
3
For the scepter of wickedness will not rule the inheritance of the righteous, so that the righteous will not themselves turn their hands to evil.
4
Do good, ADONAI, to the good, to those upright in their hearts.
5
But as for those who turn aside to their own crooked ways, may ADONAI turn them away, along with those who do evil. Shalom on Isra'el!
