Psalms 125 · תהילים

A Ma῾alot Poem. They who trust in the Lord shall be like mount Żiyyon, which cannot be removed, but abides for ever.

As the mountains are round about Yerushalayim, so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth and forever.

For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the share allotted to the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands to do wrong.

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

As for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, the Lord shall lead them away with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Yisra᾽el.
