Tehillim 122

1 I was glad when they said unto me,

Let us go into the Bais Hashem .

²Our feet shall stand within thy she'arim,

O Yerushalayim.

³Yerushalayim is built as an Ir

bound firmly together;

⁴That is where the Shevatim (tribes) go up,

the Shivtei Hashem ,

according to the edut l'Yisroel (the statute to Yisroel) ,

to give thanks unto the Shem of Hashem .

⁵For there are set kise'ot l'mishpat (thrones of judgment) ,

the kise'ot of the Bais Dovid.

⁶Sha'alu shalom Yerushalayim (pray for the peace of Jerusalem) ;

they shall prosper that love thee.

⁷Shalom be within thy wall,

and security within thy citadels.

⁸L'ma'an (for the sake of) my achim and companions,

I will now say, Shalom be within thee.

⁹L'ma'an the Bais Hashem Eloheinu

I will seek thy tov.
