Psalm 122:1-9
(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.
