Psalms
Chapter 122Berean Standard Bible
King James Version
1I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the LORD.”
I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.
2Our feet are standing in your gates, O Jerusalem.
Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
3Jerusalem is built up as a city united together,
Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:
4where the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.
5For there the thrones of judgment stand, the thrones of the house of David.
For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.
6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May those who love you prosper.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
7May there be peace within your walls, and prosperity inside your fortresses.”
Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.
8For the sake of my brothers and friends, I will say, “Peace be within you.”
For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.
9For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your prosperity.
Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.
