Psalms 122




1.  <<A Song of degrees of David.>> I was glad * when they said * unto me, Let us go * into the house of the LORD.

2.  Our feet shall stand * within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

3.  Jerusalem is builded * as a city that is compact * together:

4.  Whither the tribes go up * , the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks * unto the name of the LORD.

5.  For there are set * thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

6.  Pray * for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper * that love * thee.

7.  Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

8.  For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say * , Peace be within thee.

9.  Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek * thy good.
