Psalm 122
King James Version
122 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.

Oración por la paz de Jerusalén
Cántico de ascenso gradual[a]; de David.
122 Yo me alegré cuando me dijeron:
Vamos a la casa del Señor(A).
2 Plantados están nuestros pies
dentro de tus puertas(B), oh Jerusalén.
3 Jerusalén, que está edificada(C)
como ciudad compacta, bien unida(D),
4 a la cual suben las tribus(E), las tribus del Señor[b],
(lo cual es ordenanza[c] para Israel)
para alabar[d] el nombre del Señor.
5 Porque allí se establecieron tronos para juicio(F),
los tronos de la casa de David.
6 Orad por la paz de Jerusalén(G):
Sean prosperados los que te aman(H).
7 Haya paz dentro de tus muros(I),
y prosperidad en tus palacios(J).
8 Por amor de mis hermanos y de mis amigos(K)
diré ahora: Sea la paz en ti(L).
9 Por amor de la casa del Señor nuestro Dios
procuraré tu bien(M).
