Solved: Why is my output not as expected? (Simple OpAmp Circuit)

Added updated output based on suggestions.

EDIT:

I have taken the suggestions that have been provided and swapped the op-amp inputs. The schematic is now:

enter image description here

However, when I run the simulation, the graphical output of Vout is:

enter image description here

This is still not he magnitude of 2.5V which is what I was expecting. The simulation output is the following:

Circuit: KiCad schematic
Reducing trtol to 1 for xspice 'A' devices
Doing analysis at TEMP = 27.000000 and TNOM = 27.000000
Warning: v2: no DC value, transient time 0 value used
Note: Starting dynamic gmin stepping
Trying gmin =   1.0000E-03 Note: One successful gmin step
Trying gmin =   1.0000E-04 Note: One successful gmin step
Trying gmin =   1.0000E-05 Note: One successful gmin step
Trying gmin =   1.0000E-06 Note: One successful gmin step
Trying gmin =   1.0000E-07 Note: One successful gmin step
Trying gmin =   1.0000E-08 Note: One successful gmin step

Any further suggestions, remember, I am very new to this, so I could be missing something very basic. Thanks for the help.
