Psalm 122
1 {\i A Song of Degrees.} - I was glad when they said to me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.
2 Our feet stood in thy courts, O Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem is built as a city whose fellowship is complete.
4 For thither the tribes went up, the tribes of the Lord, as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the Lord.
5 For there are set thrones for judgement, even thrones for the house of David.
6 {Or, ask Jerusalem how it is with her} Pray now for the peace of Jerusalem: and let there be prosperity to them that love thee.
7 Let peace, I pray, be within thine host, and prosperity in thy palaces.
8 For the sake of my brethren and my neighbours, I have indeed spoken peace concerning thee.
9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, I have diligently sought thy good.
