Psalms - Chapter 122 | English Standard Version

  • 1. A Song of Ascents. Of David. I was glad when they said to me, "Let us go to the house of the LORD!"
  • 2. Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!
  • 3. Jerusalem--built as a city that is bound firmly together,
  • 4. to which the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, as was decreed for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
  • 5. There thrones for judgment were set, the thrones of the house of David.
  • 6. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! "May they be secure who love you!
  • 7. Peace be within your walls and security within your towers!"
  • 8. For my brothers and companions' sake I will say, "Peace be within you!"
  • 9. For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.
