Psalm 122

New Coverdale Version

I was glad when they said unto me, * “We will go into the house of the Lord.”

Now our feet are standing * within your gates, O Jerusalem.

Jerusalem is built as a city * that is at unity in itself.

For there the tribes go up, even the tribes of the Lord, * as was decreed for Israel, to give thanks unto the Name of the Lord.

For there is the throne of judgment, * even the throne of the house of David.

O pray for the peace of Jerusalem; * they shall prosper that love you.

Peace be within your walls * and plenteousness within your palaces.

For my brethren and companions’ sakes, * I will wish you prosperity.

Indeed, because of the house of the Lord our God, * I will seek to do you good.
