The Lord Surrounds His People

1 Those who ¹trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which ²cannot be moved, but abides forever. 2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so ³the LORD surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore. 3 For ⁴the scepter of wickedness shall not ⁵rest on ⁶the land allotted to the righteous, lest the righteous ⁷stretch out their hands to do wrong. 4 ⁸Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to those who are ⁹upright in their hearts! 5 But those who ¹⁰turn aside to their ¹¹crooked ways the LORD will lead away with ¹²evildoers! ¹³Peace be upon Israel!
