Psalm 122:3-5
The Message
3-5 Jerusalem, well-built city,
built as a place for worship!
The city to which the tribes ascend,
all God’s tribes go up to worship,
To give thanks to the name of God—
this is what it means to be Israel.
Thrones for righteous judgment
are set there, famous David-thrones.

that is closely compacted together.

the tribes of the Lord—
to praise the name of the Lord
according to the statute given to Israel.
