For the sake of my brethren and companions,I will now say, “Peace be within you.”Because of the house of the LORD our GodI will seek your good.

Psalm 122:8-9

The text

1 I was glad when they said to me,“Let us go into the house of the LORD.”

2 Our feet have been standingWithin your gates, O Jerusalem!

3 Jerusalem is builtAs a city that is compact together,

4 Where the tribes go up, The tribes of the LORD,To the Testimony of Israel, To give thanks to the name of the LORD.

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

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:“May they prosper who love you.

7 Peace be within your walls,Prosperity within your palaces.”

8 For the sake of my brethren and companions,I will now say, “Peace be within you.”

9 Because of the house of the LORD our GodI will seek your good.
