| 1 | Those who trust in the LORD are as secure as Mount Zion; they will not be defeated but will endure forever. | Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever. | A song of ascents. Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken but endures forever. | |
| 2 | Just as the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people, both now and forever. | As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore. | As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people both now and forevermore. | |
| 3 | The wicked will not rule the land of the godly, for then the godly might be tempted to do wrong. | For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous, lest the righteous stretch out their hands to do wrong. | The scepter of the wicked will not remain over the land allotted to the righteous, for then the righteous might use their hands to do evil. | |
| 4 | O LORD, do good to those who are good, whose hearts are in tune with you. | Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts! | LORD, do good to those who are good, to those who are upright in heart. | |
| 5 | But banish those who turn to crooked ways, O LORD. Take them away with those who do evil. May Israel have peace! | But those who turn aside to their crooked ways the LORD will lead away with evildoers! Peace be upon Israel! | But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be on Israel. | |
