(Song of the goings up; of David’s.) 122  I was gladdened by those who said to me“We will go to Jehovah’s house.” 2  Our feet are standingin your gates, Jerusalem, 3  Jerusalem, built like a cityall linked together, 4  Where tribes go up,Jehovah’s tribes,A testimony of Israel’s,giving thanks to Jehovah’s name. 5  For there stand thrones for judgment,the thrones of David’s house. 6  Ask for Jerusalem’s peace!may those who love you prosper, 7  May there be peace over your commonand prosperity in your palaces! 8  On account of my brothers and friendslet me say “Peace be in you!” 9  On account of my God Jehovah’s houselet me seek good for you.
