122:1 {A Song of degrees. Of David.} I rejoiced when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of Jehovah.

122:2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

122:3 Jerusalem, which art built as a city that is compact together,

122:4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of Jah, a testimony to Israel, to give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.

122:5 For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

122:7 Peace be within thy bulwarks, prosperity within thy palaces.

122:8 For my brethren and companions` sakes I will say, Peace be within thee!
