The LORD Surrounds His People
A song of ascents.
Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion. Jer 17:7-8Psa 62:2Pro 3:5-6Psa 118:8-9Psa 120:1Psa 25:2Zec 1:17Psa 34:22
It cannot be moved; it abides forever.
As the mountains surround Jerusalem, Zec 2:5Isa 4:5Psa 121:8Jhn 10:28-29Deu 33:27Psa 34:7Lam 4:12
so the LORD surrounds His people,
both now and forevermore.
For the scepter of the wicked will not rest Isa 14:5-6Psa 89:22Pro 22:81Co 10:13Rev 2:10Isa 27:81Sa 24:10Isa 10:5
upon the land allotted to the righteous,
so that the righteous will not put forth
their hands to injustice.
Do good, O LORD, to those who are good, Psa 7:10Psa 84:11Psa 119:68Psa 94:15Psa 119:80Psa 36:10Psa 51:181Jn 3:17-24
and to the upright in heart.
But those who turn to crooked ways Isa 59:8Pro 2:15Psa 128:6Gal 6:16Psa 40:4Jhn 14:27Mat 7:23Psa 101:3
the LORD will banish with the evildoers.
Peace be upon Israel.
