1Those who trust in Yahweh
are like Mount Zion, unshakable, forever enduring.

2As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so Yahweh surrounds his people
now and forever.

3The scepter of wickedness must not rule in the land of the righteous.
Otherwise the righteous might do what is wrong.

4Do good, Yahweh, 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,
Yahweh will lead them away with the evildoers.
May peace be on Israel.
