- 1A Song of degrees. They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.
- 2As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.
- 3For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.
- 4Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright 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.

The terrain carries the comparison between Jerusalem’s mountains and the Lord’s protection. A broken wooden rod at the edge signifies that wicked rule will not remain over the righteous.

Why Jerusalem
In “Why Jerusalem,” Pastor Dean Odle presents a Scripture-centered message about Jerusalem, Israel in prophecy, faith. Drawing especially from Ezekiel 38, Zechariah 14, Zechariah 12, Luke 21, the teaching emphasizes that Jerusalem is presented as a biblical and prophetic focal point in God’s purposes. Odle connects that foundation with the conviction that the sermon relates Israel’s place in Scripture to the unfolding prophetic picture.
