The Lord Surrounds His People.

A Song of Ascents.

1. Those who trust in and rely on the Lord [with confident expectation] 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 forth and forever.

3. For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land of the righteous, So that the righteous will not reach out 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 as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways [in unresponsiveness to God], The Lord will lead them away with those who do evil. Peace be upon Israel.
