122:1 A song of ascents. Of David. I rejoiced with those who said to me, “Let’s go to the house of the Lord.”
122:2 Our feet were standing within your gates, Jerusalem—
122:3 Jerusalem, built as a city should be, solidly united,
122:4 where the tribes, the Lord’s tribes, go up to give thanks to the name of the Lord. (This is an ordinance for Israel.)
122:5 There, thrones for judgment are placed, thrones of the house of David.
122:6 Pray for the well-being of Jerusalem: “May those who love you be secure;
122:7 may there be peace within your walls, security within your fortresses.”
122:8 Because of my brothers and friends, I will say, “May peace be in you.”
122:9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will pursue your prosperity.
