Salmos 122

New International Version

1 ?A song of ascents. Of David.?
I rejoiced with those who said to me, "Let us go to the house of the Lord."

2 Our feet are standing in your gates, Jerusalem.

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

4 That 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.

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

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: "May those who love you be secure.

7 May there be peace within your walls and security within your citadels."

8 For the sake of my family and friends, I will say, "Peace be within you."

9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek your prosperity.
