Psalm 125

Lawes’ Psalm 32 6.6.6.6. (Henry Lawes, 1596-1662)

1 All those who trust the LORD
like Zion are secure,
which never can be moved
but always will endure.

2 Just as the mountains stand
around Jerusalem,
the LORD surrounds his own,
forever guarding them.

3 The wicked’s evil rule
will not oppress for long
the righteous and their land,
lest righteous folk do wrong.

4 On all those who are good
bestow your goodness, LORD—
to those of upright heart
who reverence your word.

5 But God will banish those
who choose a crooked way;
they’ll share the sinner’s fate.
let peace on Israel stay!
