1«A Song of degrees.» They that trust in the LORD [shall be] as mount Zion, [which] cannot be removed, [but] abideth for ever. 2As the mountaines are about Ierusalem: so is the Lord about his people from henceforth and for euer. 3For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity. 4Doe well, O Lord, vnto those that be good and true in their hearts. 5As 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.
