Psalms 122 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 A song of David for going up to the Temple. I was happy when the people said, "Let us go to the Lord's Temple."
2 Here we are, standing at the gates of Jerusalem.
3 This is New Jerusalem! The city has been rebuilt as one united city.
4 This is where the tribes come, the tribes who belong to the Lord. The people of Israel come here to praise the Lord's name.
5 The kings from David's family put their thrones here. They set up their thrones to judge the people.
6 Pray for peace in Jerusalem: "May those who love you find peace.
7 May there be peace within your walls. May there be safety in your great buildings."
8 For the good of my family and neighbors, I pray that there will be peace here.
9 For the good of the Temple of the Lord our God, I pray that good things will happen to this city.
