Psalms 125:3
The rod - Their power and authority. Not rest - Not continue long. The lot - Upon the habitations and persons of good men. Lest - Lest they should be driven to indirect courses to relieve themselves.
The Lord the Strength of His People
A Song of Ascents.
2 As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
So the Lord surrounds His people
From this time forth and forever.
So the Lord surrounds His people
From this time forth and forever.
3 For athe scepter of wickedness shall not rest
On the land allotted to the righteous,
Lest the righteous reach out their hands to iniquity.
On the land allotted to the righteous,
Lest the righteous reach out their hands to iniquity.
5 As for such as turn aside to their acrooked ways,
The Lord shall lead them away
With the workers of iniquity.
bPeace be upon Israel!
The Lord shall lead them away
With the workers of iniquity.
bPeace be upon Israel!
