Psalm 122

Tree of Life Version

¹ A Song of Ascents. Of David.
I rejoiced when they said to me,
“Let us go to the House of Adonai.”
² Our feet are standing in your gates, Jerusalem—
³ Jerusalem, built as a city
joined together.
⁴ There the tribes go up,
the tribes of Adonai
—as a testimony to Israel—
to praise the Name of Adonai.
⁵ For there thrones for judgment are set up,
the thrones of the house of David.
⁶ Pray for the peace of Jerusalem—
“May those who love you be at peace!
⁷ May there be shalom within your walls—
quietness within your palaces.”
⁸ For the sake of my brothers and friends,
I now say: “Shalom be within you.”
⁹ For the sake of the House of Adonai our God,
I will seek your good.
