[1]
which can’t be moved, but remains forever.
[2] As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so Yahweh surrounds his people from this time forward and forever more.
[3] For the scepter of wickedness won’t remain over the allotment of the righteous,
so that the righteous won’t use their hands to do evil.
[4] Do good, Yahweh, to those who are good,
to those who are upright in their hearts.
[5] But as for those who turn away to their crooked ways,
Yahweh will lead them away with the workers of iniquity.
Peace be on Israel.
