Psalm 125

Contemporary English Version

¹ Everyone who trusts the Lord
    is like Mount Zion
that cannot be shaken
    and will stand forever.
² Just as Jerusalem is protected
    by mountains on every side,
the Lord protects his people
by holding them in his arms
    now and forever.
³ He won't let the wicked
rule his people
    or lead them to do wrong.
⁴ Let's ask the Lord to be kind
to everyone who is good
    and completely obeys him.
