<Psalms 122

[1] I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go unto the house of Jehovah.

[2] Our feet are standing Within thy gates, O Jerusalem,

[3] Jerusalem, that art builded As a city that is compact together;

[4] Whither the tribes go up, even the tribes of Jehovah, For an ordinance for Israel, To give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.

[5] For there are set thrones for judgment, The thrones of the house of David.

[6] Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: They shall prosper that love thee.

[7] Peace be within thy walls, And prosperity within thy palaces.

[8] 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 thy good.
