Psalms, Chapter 122
1. I was glad, when they were saying unto me, Unto the house of Yahweh, let us go!
2. Standing are our feet, within thy gates, O Jerusalem!
3. Jerusalem! that hath been builded, A true city, all joined together as one:
4. Whither have come up the tribes, The tribes of Yah, A testimony to Israel, To give thanks unto the Name of Yahweh:
5. For there are set -- Thrones for justice, Thrones for the house David.
6. Ask ye for the peace of Jerusalem, They shall prosper, who love thee!
7. Peace be within thy walls, prosperity within thy palaces:
8. For the sake of my brethren and friends, Oh, might I speak [saying], Peace be within thee!
9. For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, will I seek blessing for thee.

Text source: Public Domain: Rotherham s Emphasized Bible (abbreviated EBR to avoid confusion with the REB) is a translation of the Bible that uses various methods, such as emphatic idiom and special diacritical marks, to bring out nuances of the underlying Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic texts. It was produced by Joseph Bryant Rotherham, a bible scholar and minister of the Churches of Christ, who described his goal as placing the reader of the present time in as good a position as that occupied by the reader of the first century for understanding the Apostolic Writings.
