< Psalms 122 >

1 A Song of degrees. Of David. I rejoiced when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of Jehovah.
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 shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
Oure feet weren stondynge; in thi hallis, thou Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem, which art built as a city that is compact together,
Jerusalem, which is bildid as a citee; whos part taking therof is in to the same thing.
4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of Jah, a testimony to Israel, to give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.
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, the thrones of the house of David.
For thei saten there on seetis in doom; seetis on the hous of Dauid.
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
Preie ye tho thingis, that ben to the pees of Jerusalem; and abundaunce be to hem that louen thee.
7 Peace be within thy bulwarks, prosperity within thy palaces.
Pees be maad in thi vertu; and abundaunce in thi touris.
8 For my brethren and companions' sakes I will say, Peace be within thee!
For my britheren and my neiyboris; Y spak pees of thee.
9 Because of the house of Jehovah our God I will seek thy good.
For the hous of oure Lord God; Y souyte goodis to thee.
