Psalm 122:2-4
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
2 And now our feet are standing
within your gates, Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem, built as a city,
walled round about.[a](A)
4 There the tribes go up,
the tribes of the Lord,
As it was decreed for Israel,
to give thanks to the name of the Lord.(B)
Footnotes
- 122:3 Walled round about: lit., “which is joined to it,” probably referring both to the density of the buildings and to the dense population.
