Psalm 125

Common English Bible CEB

1 The people who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion: never shaken, lasting forever.

2 Mountains surround Jerusalem. That's how the LORD surrounds his people from now until forever from now!

3 The wicked rod won't remain in the land given to the righteous so that they don't use their hands to do anything wrong.

4 LORD, do good to people who are good, to people whose hearts are right.

5 But as for those people who turn to their own twisted ways— may the LORD march them off with other evildoers! Peace be on Israel!

English Standard Version ESV

1 Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever.

2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore.

3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous, lest the righteous stretch out their hands to do wrong.

4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts!

5 But those who turn aside to their crooked ways the Lord will lead away with evildoers! Peace be upon Israel!
