Psalm 122
Legacy Standard Bible

Go to the House of Yahweh

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

122 I was glad when they said to me,
“Let us (A)go to the house of Yahweh.”
2 Our feet are standing
Within your (B)gates, O Jerusalem,
3 Jerusalem, which is (C)built
As a city (D)joined altogether;
4 To which the tribes, the tribes of Yah, (E)go up—
A testimony for Israel—
To give thanks to the name of Yahweh.
5 For there, (F)thrones sit for judgment,
The thrones of the house of David.

6 Pray for the (G)peace of Jerusalem:
“May they prosper who (H)love you.
7 May peace be within your (I)walls,
And tranquility within your (J)palaces.”
8 For the sake of my (K)brothers and my friends,
I will now say, “(L)May peace be within you.”
9 For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God,
I will (M)seek your good.

Psalm 122

A Prayer for Jerusalem

A Davidic song of ascents.

1 I rejoiced with those who said to me,
“Let us go to the house of the Lord.”(A)
2 Our feet are standing
within your gates, Jerusalem(B)—

3 Jerusalem, built as a city should be,
solidly joined together,(C)
4 where the tribes, Yahweh’s tribes, go up
to give thanks to the name of Yahweh.(D)
(This is an ordinance for Israel.(E))
5 There, thrones for judgment are placed,
thrones of the house of David.(F)

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
“May those who love you prosper;(G)
7 may there be peace within your walls,
prosperity within your fortresses.”(H)
8 Because of my brothers and friends,
I will say, “Peace be with you.”(I)
9 Because of the house of the Lord our God,
I will seek your good.(J)
