Psalm 122
NET Parallel ISV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
NET BibleInternational Standard Version
1A song of ascents, by David. I was glad because they said to me, "We will go to the LORD's temple." 1I rejoiced when they kept on asking me, "Let us go to the LORD's Temple."
2Our feet are standing inside your gates, O Jerusalem. 2Our feet are standing inside your gates, Jerusalem.
3Jerusalem is a city designed to accommodate an assembly. 3Jerusalem stands built up, a city knitted together.
4The tribes go up there, the tribes of the LORD, where it is required that Israel give thanks to the name of the LORD. 4To it the tribes ascend— the tribes of the LORD— as decreed to Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
5Indeed, the leaders sit there on thrones and make legal decisions, on the thrones of the house of David. 5For thrones are established there for judgment, thrones of the house of David.
6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! May those who love her prosper! 6Pray for peace for Jerusalem: "May those who love you be at peace!
7May there be peace inside your defenses, and prosperity inside your fortresses! 7May peace be within your ramparts, and prosperity within your fortresses."
8For the sake of my brothers and my neighbors I will say, "May there be peace in you!" 8For the sake of my relatives and friends I will now say, "May there be peace within you."
9For the sake of the temple of the LORD our God I will pray for you to prosper. 9For the sake of the Temple of the LORD our God, I will seek your welfare.
