| Chapter 122 |
1 | I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go unto the house of Jehovah.
|
2 | Our feet are standing Within thy gates, O Jerusalem,
|
3 | Jerusalem, that art builded As a city that is compact together;
|
4 | Whither the tribes go up, even the tribes of Jehovah, [For] an ordinance for Israel, To give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.
|
5 | For there are set thrones for 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 | For the sake of the house of Jehovah our God I will seek thy good. Psalm 123 A Song of Ascents.
