[ Read](/kjv/psalms/125)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/125)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/125) Audio

 1 They that trust in the LORD *shall be* as mount Zion, *which* cannot be removed, *but* abideth for ever.

 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.

 5 As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: *but* peace *shall be* upon Israel.

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
[Psalms 125:0](/kjv/psalms/125/0). 

*The safety of such as trust in God. A prayer for the godly, and against the wicked.* 

A Song of Degrees. 

*Title.*המעלות שׁיר *Shiir hammangaloth.*] The title of this psalm does not tell us its author. Bishop Patrick supposes it to have been a pious exhortation to the people, to trust in God, when Sennacherib's army threatened them with destruction; and perhaps, says he, these were some of the *comfortable*words which, as we read, Hezekiah spoke to them, 2Ch 32:6-8 when God chastised them by that *rod of his anger,*as he calls Sennacherib, Isa 10:5 which the Psalmist here foretold should not long afflict them. But Dr. Delaney supposes it to have been made by David just before the attack of the strongholds of Sion; and in this light he would consider the Psalmist as answering the objections which we may imagine to have been made in a council of war held upon this occasion, from the great strength of the place; and religiously reminding them, that under the good providence of God they might be confident of surmounting all difficulties. Life of David, book 2: chap. 6.
