Psalms 122

Also in: CNV · ESV · NIV11 · NKJV · RCUV · CCBT

1I was glad when they said to me, “Let’s go to the house of the Lord.” 2Our feet are standing Within your gates, Jerusalem, 3Jerusalem, that has been built As a city that is firmly joined together; 4To which the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord— An ordinance for Israel— To give thanks to the name of the Lord. 5For thrones were set there for judgment, The thrones of the house of David. 6¶Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you. 7“May peace be within your walls, And prosperity within your palaces.” 8For the sake of my brothers and my friends, I will now say, “May peace be within you.” 9For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek your good.
