Psalm 122
A Song of Ascents. By David.
1I was glad when they said to me,
“Let’s go to YHWH’s house!”
2Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem!
3Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together,
4where the tribes go up, even YHWH’s tribes,
according to an ordinance for Israel,
to give thanks to the name of YHWH.
5For there are set thrones for judgment,
the thrones of David’s house.
6Y’all pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
May those who love you be secure.
7Peace be within your walls,
and security within your fortresses.
8For the sake of my siblings and freinds,
I will now say, “Peace be within you.”
9For the sake of the house of YHWH our God,
I will seek your good.
