Psalms 122 — AAB

Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem

A song of ascents. Of David.

122Verse 1I was glad when they said to me,“Let us go to the house of the LORD.”^{Verse 2}Our feet are standing in your gates,O Jerusalem.^{Verse 3}Jerusalem is built upas a city united together,^{Verse 4}where the tribes go up,the tribes of the LORD,as a testimony for Israel,to give thanks to the name of the LORD.^{Verse 5}For there the thrones of judgment stand,the thrones of the house of David.^{Verse 6}Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:“May those who love you prosper.^{+Verse 7}May there be peace within your walls,and prosperity⁺inside your fortresses.”^{Verse 8}For the sake of my brothers and friends,I will say, “Peace be within you.”^{Verse 9}For the sake of the house of the LORD our God,I will seek your prosperity.
