Verse BSB Berean Standard Bible KJV King James Version
1
A song of ascents. Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion . It cannot be moved; it abides forever .
They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion , which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever .
2
As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds His people , both now and forevermore .
As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people from henceforth even for ever .
3
For the scepter of the wicked will not rest upon the land allotted to the righteous , so that the righteous will not put forth their hands to injustice .
For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous ; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity .
4
Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, and to the upright in heart .
Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts .
5
But those who turn to crooked ways the LORD will banish with the evildoers. Peace be upon Israel.
As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways , the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel.
