1 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.
