Psalm 122:1-9 AMPC

[1] I was glad when they said to me, Let us go to the house of the Lord! [2] Our feet are standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!- [3] Jerusalem, which is built as a city that is compacted together- [4] To which the tribes go up, even the tribes of the Lord, as was decreed and as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the Lord. [5] For there the thrones of judgment were set, the thrones of the house of David. [6] Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! May they prosper who love you [the Holy City]! [7] May peace be within your walls and prosperity within your palaces! [8] For my brethren and companions' sake, I will now say, Peace be within you! [9] For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek, inquire for, and require your good.
