Psalms



Psalm 122

A Song of degrees of David.

   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.
