Psalms 122

Psalm 122
A song of ascents. Of David.
1 I rejoiced with those who said to me,
"Let us go to the house of the Lord."
2 Our feet are standing
in your gates, Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem is built like a city
that is closely compacted together.
4 That is where the tribes go up—
the tribes of the Lord—
to praise the name of the Lord
according to the statute given to Israel.
5 There stand the thrones for judgment,
the thrones of the house of David.
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
"May those who love(a) you be secure.
7 May there be peace(b) within your walls
and security within your citadels.(c)"
8 For the sake of my family and friends,
I will say, "Peace be within you."
9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,
I will seek your prosperity.(d)
