Psalms 122

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

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 are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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