Psalm 122:1-Psalm 123:1 - A Prayer For Jerusalem
1 I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to Yahweh's house!" 2 Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;
3 Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is compact together; 4 where the tribes go up, even Yah's tribes, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the name of Yahweh. 5 For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David's house.
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper. 7 Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces. 8 For my brothers' and companions' sakes, I will now say, "Peace be within you." 9 For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek your good. A Song of Ascents.
1 To you I do lift up my eyes, you who sit in the heavens.
