A New Version of the Psalms
PSALM CXXV.
Tate and Brady
Who place on Sion's God their trust,
Like Sion's rock shall stand;
Like her immovably be fix'd
By his Almighty hand.
2 Look how the hills on ev'ry side
Jerusalem enclose;
So stands the Lord around his saints,
To guard them from their foes.
3 The wicked may afflict the just,
But ne'er too long oppress,
Nor force him by despair to seek
Base means for his redress.
4 Be good, O righteous God, to those
Who righteous deeds affect;
The heart that innocence retains
Let innocence protect.
5 All those who walk in crooked paths
The Lord shall soon destroy;
Cut off th' unjust, but crown the saints
With lasting peace and joy.
