Psalm 122
1 I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to the house of the LORD."
2 Our feet are standing Within your gates, Jerusalem,
3 Jerusalem, that has been built As a city that is firmly joined together;
4 To which the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD— An ordinance for Israel— To give thanks to the name of the LORD.
5 For thrones were set there for judgment, The thrones of the house of David.
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: "May they prosper who love you.
7 May peace be within your walls, And prosperity within your palaces."
8 For the sake of my brothers and my friends, I will now say, "May peace be within you."
9 For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.
