Psalms - Chapter 122 | New International Version

  • 1. {A song of ascents. Of David.} 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, O 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 the thrones for judgment stand, the thrones of the house of David.
  • 6. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: "May those who love you be secure.
  • 7. May there be peace within your walls and security within your citadels."
  • 8. For the sake of my brothers 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.
