Psalms - 122

1 - 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.
