Psalm 125
NET Parallel ISV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
NET BibleInternational Standard Version
1A song of ascents. Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion; it cannot be upended and will endure forever. 1Those who are trusting in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be overthrown. They remain forever.
2As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people, now and forevermore. 2Just as mountains encircle Jerusalem, so the LORD encircles his people, from now to eternity.
3Indeed, the scepter of a wicked king will not settle upon the allotted land of the godly. Otherwise the godly might do what is wrong. 3For evil's scepter will not rest on the land that has been allotted to the righteous, and so the righteous will not direct themselves to do wrong.
4Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, to the morally upright! 4LORD, do good to those who are good, and to those who are upright in heart.
5As for those who are bent on traveling a sinful path, may the LORD remove them, along with those who behave wickedly! May Israel experience peace! 5But for those who choose their own devious paths, the LORD will lead them away, along with those who practice evil. Peace be upon Israel.
