Trust in the Lord

1 {A Song of degrees.} 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

The psalmist urges us to trust in the Lord and have confidence in His ability to protect us. This is a message that can be applied to our daily lives, as we face various challenges and uncertainties. By trusting in the Lord, we can find comfort and security, knowing that we are in His hands. The imagery of Mount Zion, which is steadfast and unmovable, reinforces the idea that God's protection is unshakable. On the other hand, the fate of the wicked and those who turn away from God serves as a warning to those who may be tempted to stray from the path of righteousness. Ultimately, this psalm reminds us that our faith and trust in the Lord can guide us through life's difficulties and lead us to eternal salvation.
