Psalms 122

1 A Song of Ascents; of David. I rejoiced when they said unto me: 'Let us go unto the house of the LORD.'

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

2 Our feet are standing within thy gates, O Jerusalem;

stantes erant pedes nostri in atriis tuis Hierusalem

3 Jerusalem, that art builded as a city that is compact together;

Hierusalem quae aedificatur ut civitas cuius participatio eius in id ipsum

4 Whither the tribes went up, even the tribes of the LORD, as a testimony unto Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

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

5 For there were 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; may they prosper that love thee.

rogate quae ad pacem sunt Hierusalem et abundantia diligentibus te

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

fiat pax in virtute tua et abundantia in turribus tuis

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

propter fratres meos et proximos meos loquebar pacem de te

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

propter domum Domini Dei nostri quaesivi bona tibi
