Psalms 122

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

²Our feet are standing Within your gates, O Jerusalem,

³Jerusalem, that is built As a city that is firmly joined together;

⁴To which the [twelve] tribes go up, even the tribes of the LORD, [As was decreed as] an ordinance for Israel, To give thanks to the name of the LORD.

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

⁶Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: "May they prosper who love you [holy city].

⁷"May peace be within your walls And prosperity within your palaces."

⁸For the sake of my brothers and my friends, I will now say, "May peace be within you."

⁹For the sake of the house of the LORD our God [which is Jerusalem], I will seek your (the city's) good.
