124
1 A Song of Degrees.
They that trust in the Lord shall be as Mount Zion:
He that dwells in Jerusalem shall never be moved.
2 The mountains are round about her,
And so the Lord is round about his people,
From henceforth and even forever.
3 For the Lord will not allow the rod of sinners
To be upon the lot of the righteous;
Lest the righteous should stretch forth
Their hands to iniquity.
4 Do good, O Lord, to them that are good,
And to them that are upright in heart.
5 But them that turn aside to crooked ways
The Lord will lead away with the workers of iniquity:
But peace shall be upon Israel.
