Commontide

Psalm 125

A Song of Ascents.

Those who put their trust in the Lord shall be like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but stands fast for ever.

The hills stand about Jerusalem even as the Lord stands round about his people, from this time forth for evermore.

For the scepter of the ungodly shall not rest upon the land allotted to the righteous, lest the righteous put forth their hand to do wickedness.

Do good, O Lord, unto those who are good, unto those who are good and true of heart.

As for those who turn aside to their own wicked ways, the Lord shall lead them away with the evildoers; but peace shall be upon Israel.
