<< Psalm 122 >> Aramaic Bible in Plain English

---

1I was gladdened when they said to me, “We are going to the house of Lord Jehovah”!

2My feet had been standing inside your gates, oh, Jerusalem!

3Jerusalem is a building like a city surrounded with a wall.

4There went up the tribes, the tribes of Lord Jehovah, a testimony to Israel.

5Because there they set up thrones for judgment, to thank The Name of Lord Jehovah, the thrones of the house of David.

6Invoke the peace of Jerusalem; your friends shall be prosperous.

7Let there be peace by your power and prosperity within your walls.

8Because of my brothers and my friends I shall pronounce peace upon you.

9For the sake of the house of Lord Jehovah, our God, I shall seek for your good.
