122:1  A Song of Ascents. By David. I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to Yahweh's house!"

122:2  Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;

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

122:4  Where the tribes go up, even Yah's tribes, According to an ordinance for Israel, To give thanks to the name of Yahweh.

122:5  For there are set thrones for judgment, The thrones of David's house.

122:6  Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.

122:7  Peace be within your walls, And prosperity within your palaces.

122:8  For my brothers' and companions' sakes, I will now say, "Peace be within you."

122:9  For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek your good.
