2 Jerusalem! -- mountains are round about her, and Jehovah is round about his people, from henceforth and for evermore.

The scepter of the wicked will not remain over the land allotted to the righteous, for then the righteous might use their hands to do evil.

LORD, do good to those who are good, to those who are upright in heart.
5 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!

But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be on Israel.
