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.
