Psalms 122

1 I was glad when they said to me,
"Let us go into the house of the Lord." 2 Our feet have been standing
Within your gates, O Jerusalem! 3 Jerusalem is built
As a city that is compact together, 4 Where the tribes go up,
The tribes of the Lord,
To the Testimony of Israel,
To give thanks to the name of the Lord. 5 For thrones are set there for judgment,
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,
Prosperity within your palaces." 8 For the sake of my brethren and companions,
I will now say, "Peace be within you." 9 Because of the house of the Lord our God
I will seek your good.
