Salmos 125

The Lord the Strength of His People

A Song of Ascents.

1 Those who trust in the Lord

Are like Mount Zion,

Which cannot be moved, but abides forever.

2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem,

So the Lord surrounds His people

From this time forth and forever.

3 For *Gen. 1:1; Ps. 134:3the scepter of wickedness shall not rest

On the land allotted to the righteous,

Lest the righteous reach out their hands to iniquity.

4 Do good, O Lord, to thosewhoare good,

And to thosewhoare upright in their hearts.

5 As for such as turn aside to their *Prov. 22:8; Is. 14:5crooked ways,

The Lord shall lead them away

With the workers of iniquity.

*Prov. 2:15; Is. 59:8Peace be upon Israel!
