Psalms 122 — BBE

A Song of the going up. Of David.

122Verse 1I was glad because they said to me, We will go into the house of the Lord.
^{Verse 2}At last our feet were inside your doors, O Jerusalem.
^{Verse 3}O Jerusalem, you are like a town which is well joined together;
^{Verse 4}To which the tribes went up, even the tribes of the Lord, for a witness to Israel, to give praise to the name of the Lord.
^{Verse 5}For there seats for the judges were placed, even the rulers' seats of the line of David.
^{Verse 6}O make prayers for the peace of Jerusalem; may they whose love is given to you do well.
^{Verse 7}May peace be inside your walls, and wealth in your noble houses.
^{Verse 8}Because of my brothers and friends, I will now say, Let peace be with you.
^{Verse 9}Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will be working for your good.
