Chapter 122 |
| 1 | I was glad
when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD. |
| 2 | Our
feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem. |
| 3 | Jerusalem is
builded as a city that is compact together: |
|
4 | Whither the tribes go up,
the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the
name of the LORD. |
|
5 | For there are set thrones of 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 | Because of the house of the LORD our
God I will seek thy good. |
