1 A Song of the going up. Those whose hope is in the Lord are like the mountain of Zion, which may not be moved, but keeps its place for ever.

2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people, from this time and for ever.

3 For the rod of sinners will not be resting on the heritage of the upright; so that the upright may not put out their hands to evil.

4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in heart.

5 But as for such as are turned out of the straight way, the Lord will take them away with the workers of evil. Let peace be on Israel.

1 They that trust in Jehovah

Are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abideth for ever.

2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem,

So Jehovah is round about his people

From this time forth and for evermore.

3 For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous;

That the righteous put not forth their hands unto iniquity.

4 Do good, O Jehovah, unto those that are good,

And to them that are upright in their hearts.

5 But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways,

Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity.

Peace be upon Israel.
