122:1  I was glad when they said to me,
'Let us go into the house of the LORD.'

122:2  Our feet have been standing
Within your gates, O Jerusalem!

122:3  Jerusalem is built
As a city that is compact together,

122:4  Where the tribes go up,
The tribes of the LORD,
To the Testimony of Israel,
To give thanks to the name of the LORD.

122:5  For thrones are set there for judgment,
The thrones of the house of David.

122:6  Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
“May they prosper who love you.

122:7  Peace be within your walls,
Prosperity within your palaces.”

122:8  For the sake of my brethren and companions,
I will now say, “Peace be within you.”

122:9  Because of the house of the LORD our God
I will seek your good.
