Psalms 122

1 [A Song of Ascents. By David.] I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to Jehovah's house."

I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of Yhwh.

2 Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;

Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

3 Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is joined together;

Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:

4 where the tribes go up, even the tribes of JAH, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the name of Jehovah.

Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of Yah, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of Yhwh.

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

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

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.

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

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

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

8 For my brothers' and companions' sakes, I will now say, "Peace be within you."

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

9 For the sake of the house of Jehovah our God, I will seek your good.

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