Psalm 122:1-5

Psalm 122 1A song of ascents. Of David. I rejoiced with those who said to me, “Let us go to the house of the LORD .”

2Our feet are standing in your gates, Jerusalem.

3Jerusalem is built like a city that is closely compacted together.

4That is where the tribes go up— the tribes of the LORD — to praise the name of the LORD according to the statute given to Israel.

5There stand the thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David.
