Psalms 122

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

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

2 Our feet stood in your courts, O Jerusalem.

Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

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

Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:

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

Whither 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 are set thrones for judgment, [even] thrones for the house of David.

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

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

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

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

Peace be within thy walls, [and] prosperity within thy palaces.

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

For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace [be] within thee.

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

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