Psalms 122

1 A Song of degrees. Of David. I rejoiced when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of Jehovah.

canticum graduum huic David laetatus sum in his quae dicta sunt mihi in domum Domini ibimus

2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

stantes erant pedes nostri in atriis tuis Hierusalem

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

Hierusalem quae aedificatur ut civitas cuius participatio eius in id ipsum

4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of Jah, a testimony to Israel, to give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.

illic enim ascenderunt tribus tribus Domini testimonium Israhel ad confitendum nomini Domini

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

quia illic sederunt sedes in iudicium sedes super domum David

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

rogate quae ad pacem sunt Hierusalem et abundantia diligentibus te

7 Peace be within thy bulwarks, prosperity within thy palaces.

fiat pax in virtute tua et abundantia in turribus tuis

8 For my brethren and companions' sakes I will say, Peace be within thee!

propter fratres meos et proximos meos loquebar pacem de te

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

propter domum Domini Dei nostri quaesivi bona tibi
