122:1 A Song of degrees of David. I was glad when they said to
me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.
122:2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
122:3 Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together:
122:4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, to the
testimony of Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
122:5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the
house of David.
122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that
love thee.
122:7 Peace be within thy walls, [and] prosperity within thy
palaces.
122:8 For my brethren and companions' sake, I will now say,
Peace [be] within thee.
122:9 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy
good.
