122:1 [A song by David for going up to worship.] I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to the house of the LORD."
122:2 Our feet are standing inside your gates, Jerusalem.
122:3 Jerusalem is built to be a city where the people are united.
122:4 All of the LORD's tribes go to that city because it is a law in Israel to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
122:5 The court of justice sits there. It consists of [princes who are] David's descendants.
122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: "May those who love you prosper.
122:7 May there be peace inside your walls and prosperity in your palaces."
122:8 For the sake of my relatives and friends, let me say, "May it go well for you!"
122:9 For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek what is good for you.
