Psalms 122

1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY DAVID. I have rejoiced in those saying to me, “We go to the house of YHWH.”

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 have been standing in your gates, O Jerusalem!

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

3 Jerusalem—the built one—[Is] as a city that is joined to itself together.

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

4 For there tribes have gone up, Tribes of YAH, companies of Israel, To give thanks to the Name of YHWH.

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 thrones of judgment have sat, Thrones of the house of David.

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

6 Ask [for] the peace of Jerusalem, Those loving you are at rest.

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

7 Peace is in your bulwark, rest in your high places,

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

8 For the sake of my brothers and my companions, Please let me speak, “Peace [be] in you.”

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

9 For the sake of the house of our God YHWH, I seek good for you!

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