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. | |
