1Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but stands for ever.
2As the mountains stand around Jerusalem, so the LORD stands around his people, from now on and for ever.
3For the rod of the wicked will not rest on the land given to the righteous, so that the righteous do not reach out their hands to do wrong.
4Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts.
5But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, the LORD will lead them away with those who do evil. But peace will be upon Israel.
