The Book of Psalms, 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.
