Psalms 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.
