Psalms 122

1 A Song of Ascents; of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go unto the house of the LORD.

canticum graduum huic David laetatus sum in his quae dicta sunt mihi in domum Domini ibimus

2 Our feet are standing within thy gates, O Jerusalem;

stantes erant pedes nostri in atriis tuis Hierusalem

3 Jerusalem, that art builded as a city that is compact together:

Hierusalem quae aedificatur ut civitas cuius participatio eius in id ipsum

4 Whither the tribes go up, even the tribes of the LORD [for] a testimony unto Israel, to give thanks into the name of the LORD.

illic enim ascenderunt tribus tribus Domini testimonium Israhel ad confitendum nomini Domini

5 For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

quia illic sederunt sedes in iudicium sedes super domum David

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

rogate quae ad pacem sunt Hierusalem et abundantia diligentibus te

7 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

fiat pax in virtute tua et abundantia in turribus tuis

8 For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.

propter fratres meos et proximos meos loquebar pacem de te

9 For the sake of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.

propter domum Domini Dei nostri quaesivi bona tibi
