1 THEY who trust in the LORD in the mount of Zion shall not be moved, but shall dwell there for ever.

2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.

3 For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the portion of the righteous; neither shall the righteous put forth their hands to iniquity.

4 Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to them who are upright in their hearts.

5 But as for those who follow their crooked ways, the LORD will scatter them together with the workers of iniquity; but peace will be upon Israel.
