Psalm 125:2-4
King James Version
2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.
3 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, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so (A)the Lord surrounds his people,
from this time forth and forevermore.

and to those who are (G)upright in their hearts!
