Wanting peace for Yerushalem

Psa 122:1–9

122:1 Wanting peace for Yerushalem

122 A song by David while walking uphill to Yerushalem.

1 I was happy when they said to me,

“Let’s go to Yahweh’s house.”

2 Yerushalem (Jerusalem), our feet are standing inside your gates—

3 Yerushalem, the city that was built with its protective walls

4 which is where Yahweh’s tribes went up to

following what was revealed to Yisrael (Israel) to give thanks to Yahweh,

5 because judgement thrones remained there—

thrones of David’s descendants.

6 Pray for Yerushalem to have peace and prosperity.

≈ May those who love Yerushalem live at ease.

7 May there be peace within your walls—

peace within your fortresses.

8 For the sake of my friends and relatives

I’ll say, “May there be peace within you.”

9 For the sake of the house of our god Yahweh

I’ll strive for the good of Yerushalem.
