DavidKing and worship leader of Israel. Set in Jerusalem, the holy city and seat of David's throne. Pure joy bubbles over as pilgrims finally arrive at Jerusalem's gates, seeing the magnificent city where God's presence dwells and David's throne stands. The long journey is worth it as they enter the place where heaven touches earth.

Psalms 122:1122:1

Read when: Read this when you're excited about gathering with other believers or when you need to remember the joy of worship.

1I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to Yahweh's house!" 2Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem; 3Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is compact together; 4where the tribes go up, even Yah's tribes, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the name of Yahweh. 5For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David's house. 6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper. 7Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces. 8For my brothers' and companions' sakes, I will now say, "Peace be within you." 9For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek your good. A Song of Ascents.
