Psalms 122

1 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.

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

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

Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;

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

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

4 For the lynagis, the lynagis of the Lord stieden thidir, the witnessing of Israel; to knouleche to the name of the Lord.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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