A Song of Ascents.
1	Those who trust in the LORD Are like Mount Zion, Which cannot be moved, but abides 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 allotted to the righteous, Lest the righteous reach out their hands to iniquity.
4	Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, And to those who are upright in their hearts.
5	As for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, The LORD shall lead them away With the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel!
