Psalm 122 :: Amplified Bible (AMP)

Our feet are standing

Within your gates, O Jerusalem,

Jerusalem, that is built

As a city that is firmly joined together;

To which the [twelve] tribes go up, even the tribes of the LORD,

[As was decreed as] an ordinance for Israel,

To give thanks to the name of the LORD.

For there the thrones of judgment were set,

The thrones of the house of David.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:

“May they prosper who love you [holy city].

“May peace be within your walls

And prosperity within your palaces.”

For the sake of my brothers and my friends,

I will now say, “May peace be within you.”

For the sake of the house of the LORD our God [which is Jerusalem],

I will seek your (the city’s) good.
