Psalms 122

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 A song of ascents. Of David. I rejoiced when they said to me, "Let us go to the house of the LORD."	1 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.
2 And now our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem.	2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem, built as a city, walled round about.	3 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:
4 Here the tribes have come, the tribes of the LORD, As it was decreed for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.	4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.
5 Here are the thrones of justice, the thrones of the house of David.	5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.
6 For the peace of Jerusalem pray: "May those who love you prosper!	6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
7 May peace be within your ramparts, prosperity within your towers."	7 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.
8 For family and friends I say, "May peace be yours."	8 For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.
9 For the house of the LORD, our God, I pray, "May blessings be yours."	9 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.
