122Psalms

A Song of Ascents. Of David.  
1 I was glad when they said to me,
"Let us go to the house of the LORD!"

In Praise of Jerusalem. Psalm 122(v121)
2 Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!  
3 Jerusalem, built as a city
which is bound firmly together,

 
4 to which the tribes go up,
the tribes of the LORD, as was decreed for Israel,
to give thanks to the name of the LORD.

 
5 There thrones for judgment were set,
the thrones of the house of David.
 
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
"May they prosper who love you!

 
7 Peace be within your walls,
and security within your towers!"
 
8 For my brethren and companions' sake I will say,
"Peace be within you!"

 
9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,
I will seek your good.
