‏ Psalms 122

Let Us Go to the House of the Lord

A Song of aAscents. Of David.

1I was glad when they said to me,
b“Let us go to the house of the Lord!”
 2Our feet have been standing
within your gates, O Jerusalem!
 3Jerusalem— cbuilt as a city
that is dbound firmly together,
 4to which the tribes ego up,
the tribes of the Lord,
as was fdecreed for ▼
▼Or  as a testimony for
 Israel,
to give thanks to the name of the Lord.
 5There hthrones for judgment were set,
the thrones of the house of David.
 6 iPray for the peace of Jerusalem!
“May they be secure who love you!
 7Peace be within your jwalls
and security within your ktowers!”
 8For my brothers and companions’ sake
I will say, l“Peace be within you!”
 9For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,
I will mseek your good.
