Psalm 122
122
1 A Canticle in steps. I have lifted up my eyes to you, who dwells in the heavens.
2 Behold, as the eyes of the servants are on the hands of their masters, as the eyes of the handmaid are on the hands of her mistress, so our eyes are upon the Lord our God, until he may be merciful to us.
3 Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us. For we have been filled with utter disdain.
4 For our soul has been greatly filled. We are the disgrace of those who have abundance and the disdain of the arrogant.

122
The Joy of Going to the House of the Lord
A Song of Ascents. Of David.
1I was glad when they said to me,
#Deut. 28:6; (Prov. 2:8; 3:6)“Let us go into the house of the Lord.”
2Our feet have been standing
Within your gates, O Jerusalem!
3Jerusalem is built
As a city that is #(Is. 2:3; Mic. 4:2); Zech. 8:21compact together,
4#2 Sam. 5:9Where the tribes go up,
The tribes of the Lord,
To #Ex. 23:17; Deut. 16:16the Testimony of Israel,
To give thanks to the name of the Lord.
5#Ex. 16:34For thrones are set there for judgment,
The thrones of the house of David.
6#Deut. 17:8; 2 Chr. 19:8Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
“May they prosper who love you.
7Peace be within your walls,
Prosperity within your palaces.”
8For the sake of my brethren and companions,
I will now say, “Peace be within you.”
9Because of the house of the Lord our God
I will #Ps. 51:18seek your good.
