Psalm 125:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² The Lord is always near to his people,
    like the mountains round Jerusalem.
He keeps his people safe, now and for ever.^[a]
3 Wicked people will not rule over God's own people.
    They will not rule the land where righteous people live.
If they did, the righteous people might also do bad things.
⁴ Lord, please do good things to good, honest people.
    Be kind to those who follow your good ways.
