Psalms 122:8 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee. For any brethren and companions' sakes - Because this city is the abode of my kinsfolk and countrymen, I will wish it prosperity. I will promote its peace and tranquillity by all means in my power. I will affectionately say, May peace be within thee!
