Psalm 122. Laetatus sum.

From the Book of Divine Worship - The Psalter or Psalms of David - Contemporary - Twenty-seventh Day - Morning Prayer.
  1. I was glad when they said to me, *
    Let us go to the house of the Lord.
  2. Now our feet are standing *
    within your gates, O Jerusalem.
  3. Jerusalem is built as a city *
    that is at unity with itself;
  4. To which the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, *
    the assembly of Israel, to praise the Name of the Lord.
  5. For there are the thrones of judgment, *
    the thrones of the house of David.
  6. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: *
    "May they prosper who love you.
  7. Peace be within your walls *
    and quietness within your towers.
  8. For my brethren and companions' sake, *
    I pray for your prosperity.
  9. Because of the house of the Lord our God, *
    I will seek to do you good."
