Psalm 125 - New Century Version (NCV)

God Protects Those Who Trust Him

A song for going up to worship.

125 Those who trust the Lord are like Mount Zion,
which sits unmoved forever.
2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
the Lord surrounds his people
now and forever.

3 The wicked will not rule
over those who do right.
If they did, the people who do right
might use their power to do evil.

4 Lord, be good to those who are good,
whose hearts are honest.
5 But, Lord, when you remove those who do evil,
also remove those who stop following you.

Let there be peace in Israel.
