Psalm 122

¹I was glad when they said to me, *“Let us go to the house of the Lord.”

²Now our feet are standing *within your gates, O Jerusalem.

³Jerusalem is built as a city *that is at unity with itself;

⁴To which the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, *the assembly of Israel, to praise the Name of the Lord.

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

⁶Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: *“May they prosper who love you.

⁷Peace be within your walls *and quietness within your towers.

⁸For my brethren and companions’ sake, *I pray for your prosperity.

⁹Because of the house of the Lord our God, *I will seek to do you good.”
