David wrote this prayer
It expressess his joy at being in Jerusalem, the place where he has experienced the blessing of God.
Psalm 122:1–9 1 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD. 2 Our feet shall stand Within thy gates, O Jerusalem. 3 Jerusalem is builded As a city that is compact together: 4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, Unto the testimony of Israel, To give thanks unto the name of the LORD. 5 For there are set thrones of judgment, The thrones of the house of David. 6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: They shall prosper that love thee. 7 Peace be within thy walls, And prosperity within thy palaces. 8 For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee. 9 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.
