PSALM 122

« Psalm 121 | Psalm 122 | Psalm 123 »

Let Us Go to the House of the Lord

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

122:1 I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord !”

2 Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!





3 Jerusalem—built as a city that is bound firmly together,

4 to which the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord , as was decreed for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the Lord .

5 There thrones for judgment were set, the thrones of the house of David.





6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! “May they be secure who love you!

7 Peace be within your walls and security within your towers!”

8 For my brothers and companions’ sake I will say, “Peace be within you!”

9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek your good.
