Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever.
2 Jerusalem-the mountains surround her. And the Lord surrounds His people, both now and forever.

As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore.
3 The scepter of the wicked will not remain over the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not apply their hands to injustice.

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 what is good, Lord, to the good, to those whose hearts are upright.
4
Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts!
5 But as for those who turn aside to crooked ways, the Lord will banish them with the evildoers. Peace be with Israel.

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