Psalm 122

Darby Translation

A Song of degrees. Of David.

122 I rejoiced when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of Jehovah.

² Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

³ Jerusalem, which art built as a city that is compact together,

⁴ Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of Jah, a testimony to 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 bulwarks, prosperity within thy palaces.

⁸ For my brethren and companions' sakes I will say, Peace be within thee!

⁹ Because of the house of Jehovah our God I will seek thy good.
