New King James Version NKJV
King James Version KJV
1 A Song of Ascents. Those who trust in the Lord Are like Mount Zion, Which cannot be moved, but abides forever.
1
They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.
2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, So the Lord surrounds His people From this time forth and forever.
2
As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.
3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest On the land allotted to the righteous, Lest the righteous reach out their hands to iniquity.
3
For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.
4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, And to those who are upright in their hearts.
4
Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.
5 As for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, The Lord shall lead them away With the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel!
5
As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel.
