The Lord surrounds his people

1
A song of ascents. Those who trust in Yahweh are like Mount Zion, unshakable, forever enduring.
2
As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so Yahweh surrounds his people now and forever.
3
The scepter of wickedness must not rule in the land of the righteous. Otherwise the righteous might do what is wrong.
4
Do good, Yahweh, 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, Yahweh will lead them away with the evildoers. May peace be on Israel.

The Lord surrounds his people

1
Those who trust in the LORD are as Mount Zion, which can’t be moved, but remains forever.
2
As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people from this time forward and forever more.
3
For the scepter of wickedness won’t remain over the allotment of the righteous, so that the righteous won’t use their hands to do evil.
4
Do good, LORD, to those who are good, to those who are upright in their hearts.
5
But as for those who turn away to their crooked ways, the LORD will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be on Israel.
