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. |
