Psalms 122

¹I was glad when they said to me, "Let us go to the LORD's house."

²And now we are here, standing inside the gates of Jerusalem!

³Jerusalem is a city restored in beautiful order and harmony.

⁴This is where the tribes come, the tribes of Israel, to give thanks to the LORD according to his command.

⁵Here the kings of Israel sat to judge their people.

⁶Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: "May those who love you prosper.

⁷May there be peace inside your walls and safety in your palaces."

⁸For the sake of my relatives and friends I say to Jerusalem, "Peace be with you!"

⁹For the sake of the house of the LORD our God I pray for your prosperity.
