Psalm 122

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

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.
