Psalm 122
1 A Song of Ascents, of David . I Was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of YHVH.” 2 Our feet are standing Within your gates, O Jerusalem, 3 Jerusalem, that is built As a city that is compact together; 4 To which the tribes go up, even the tribes of YHVH– An ordinance for Israel– To give thanks to the name of YHVH. 5 For there thrones were set 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.” 8 For the sake of my brothers and my friends, I will now say, “May peace be within you.” 9 For the sake of the house of YHVH our God I will seek your good.
