Psalm 122

¹I rejoiced when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of Jehovah.

²Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

³Jerusalem, which art built as a city that is compact together,

⁴Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of Jah, a testimony to Israel, to give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.

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

⁶Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

⁷Peace be within thy bulwarks, prosperity within thy palaces.

⁸For my brethren and companions' sakes I will say, Peace be within thee!

⁹Because of the house of Jehovah our God I will seek thy good.
