Psalms 122
-
1 A Song of Ascents; of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go unto the house of Jehovah.
-
2 Our feet are standing Within thy gates, O Jerusalem,
-
3 Jerusalem, that art builded As a city that is compact together;
-
4 Whither the tribes go up, even the tribes of Jehovah, [For] an ordinance for Israel, To give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.
-
5 For there are set thrones for judgment, The thrones of the house of David.
-
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: They shall prosper that love thee.
-
7 Peace be within thy walls, And prosperity within thy palaces.
-
8 For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.
-
9 For the sake of the house of Jehovah our God I will seek thy good.
