Psalms 122
American Standard Version
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.
