Psalms 122

1 A Song of Degrees. I was glad when they said to me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.

The song of the grecis of Dauid. I am glad in these thingis, that ben seid to me; We schulen go in to the hous of the Lord.

2 Our feet stood in thy courts, O Jerusalem.

Oure feet weren stondynge; in thi hallis, thou Jerusalem.

3 Jerusalem is built as a city whose fellowship is complete.

Jerusalem, which is bildid as a citee; whos part taking therof is in to the same thing.

4 For thither the tribes went up, the tribes of the Lord, as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the Lord.

For the lynagis, the lynagis of the Lord stieden thidir, the witnessing of Israel; to knouleche to the name of the Lord.

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

For thei saten there on seetis in doom; seetis on the hous of Dauid.

6 Pray now for the peace of Jerusalem: and [let there be] prosperity to them that love thee.

Preie ye tho thingis, that ben to the pees of Jerusalem; and abundaunce be to hem that louen thee.

7 Let peace, I pray, be within thine host, and prosperity in thy palaces.

Pees be maad in thi vertu; and abundaunce in thi touris.

8 For the sake of my brethren and my neighbours, I have indeed spoken peace concerning thee.

For my britheren and my neiyboris; Y spak pees of thee.

9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, I have diligently sought thy good.

For the hous of oure Lord God; Y souyte goodis to thee.
