Psalms 122

1 I was glad when they said to me, Let us go to the house of Jehovah.

I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.

2 Our feet are standing inside thy gates, O Jerusalem.

Our feet shall stand within your gates, O Jerusalem.

3 Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is compact together,

Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together:

4 where the tribes go up, even the tribes of Jehovah, for an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the name of Jehovah.

Where the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

5 For there thrones are set for judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. They shall prosper who love thee.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love you.

7 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces.

8 For my brothers and companions' sakes I will now say, Peace be within thee.

For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within you.

9 For the sake of the house of Jehovah our God I will seek thy good.

Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek your good.
