New Century Version
Psalms 122
Happy People in Jerusalem
A song for going up to worship. Of David.
1 I was happy when they said to me,
"Let's go to the Temple of the Lord."
2 Jerusalem, we are standing
at your gates.
3 Jerusalem is built as a city
with the buildings close together.
4 The tribes go up there,
the tribes who belong to the Lord.
It is the rule in Israel
to praise the Lord at Jerusalem.
5 There the descendants of David
set their thrones to judge the people.
6 Pray for peace in Jerusalem:
"May those who love her be safe.
7 May there be peace within her walls
and safety within her strong towers."
8 To help my relatives and friends,
I say, "Let Jerusalem have peace."
9 For the sake of the Temple of the Lord our God,
I wish good for her.
