Psalm 122

Young's Literal Translation

122 A Song of the Ascents, by David. I have rejoiced in those saying to me, `To the house of Jehovah we go.'

² Our feet have been standing in thy gates, O Jerusalem!

³ Jerusalem -- the builded one -- [Is] as a city that is joined to itself together.

⁴ For thither have tribes gone up, Tribes of Jah, companies of Israel, To give thanks to the name of Jehovah.

⁵ For there have sat thrones of judgment, Thrones of the house of David.

⁶ Ask ye the peace of Jerusalem, At rest are those loving thee.

⁷ Peace is in thy bulwark, rest in thy high places,

⁸ For the sake of my brethren and my companions, Let me speak, I pray thee, `Peace [be] in thee.'

⁹ For the sake of the house of Jehovah our God, I seek good for thee!
