1 A Song of Ascents. Those who trust in the LORD Are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved but remains forever.
2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem, So the LORD surrounds His people From this time and forever.
3 For the scepter of wickedness will not rest upon the land of the righteous, So that the righteous will not extend their hands to do wrong.
4 Do good, LORD, to those who are good And to those who are upright in their hearts.
5 But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, The LORD will lead them away with those who practice injustice. Peace be upon Israel.
