Psal. 125. Qui confidunt.
Canticum Graduum.
1
Whoso commend their trust approv'd,unto the Lords command,
Shall, as Mount Sion, not be mov'd,
but fast for ever stand.
263
2
Jerusalem is wall'd with Hills,so bounds the Lord his ground;
And evermore the Compasse fills,
about his people round.
3
For wickednesses rod shall notupon the Just abutt;
Lest thence to draw a wicked lot,
the Just their hands forth put.
4
As all good gifts thou dost conferre,Lord, to the good doe good;
And, righteous as thou art, preferre
the upright-hearted brood.
5
But such, as to their crooked vainerevolt, the Lord shall lead,
With them that evill worke with paine:
“Peace be on Israels head.
