1 Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion,

which cannot be moved, but abides for ever.

2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem,

so the Lord is round about his people,

from this time forth and for evermore.

3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest

upon the land allotted to the righteous,

lest the righteous put forth

their hands to do wrong.

4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good,

and to those who are upright in their hearts!

5 But those who turn aside upon their crooked ways

the Lord will lead away with evildoers!

Peace be in Israel!
