A Song of degrees of David.
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.
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.
