# Chapter 122
|
|
1 I was glad when they said to me,
|
|
“Let us go to the house of the Lord!”
|
|
2 Our feet have been standing
|
|
within your gates, O Jerusalem!
|
|
3 Jerusalem—built as a city
|
|
that is bound firmly together,
|
|
4 to which the tribes go up,
|
|
the tribes of the Lord,
|
|
as was decreed for Israel,
|
|
to give thanks to the name of the Lord.
|
|
5 There thrones for judgment were set,
|
|
the thrones of the house of David.
|
|
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
|
|
“May they be secure who love you!
|
|
7 Peace be within your walls
|
|
and security within your towers!”
|
|
8 For my brothers and companions' sake
|
|
I will say, “Peace be within you!”
|
|
9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,
|
|
I will seek your good. |
