Psalm 122

¹I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go into the house of the Lord

²Our feet have been standing Within your gates, O Jerusalem!

³Jerusalem is built As a city that is compact together,

⁴Where the tribes go up, The tribes of the Lord To the Testimony of Israel, To give thanks to the name of the Lord

⁵For thrones are set there for judgment, The thrones of the house of David.

⁶Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you.

⁷Peace be within your walls, Prosperity within your palaces.”

⁸For the sake of my brethren and companions, I will now say, “Peace be within you.”

⁹Because of the house of the Lord I will seek your good.
