Psalms - Chapter 122 - New International Version
- I rejoiced with those who said to me, "Let us go to the house of the LORD."
- Our feet are standing in your gates, Jerusalem.
- Jerusalem is built like a city that is closely compacted together.
- That is where the tribes go up — the tribes of the LORD — to praise the name of the LORD according to the statute given to Israel.
- There stand the thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David.
- Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: "May those who love you be secure.
- May there be peace within your walls and security within your citadels."
- For the sake of my family and friends, I will say, "Peace be within you."
- For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your prosperity.
