1   I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to the LORD's house." 2   Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem; 3   Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is joined together; 4   where the tribes go up, even the tribes of the LORD, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD. 5   For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David's house. 6   Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper. 7   Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces. 8   For my brothers' and companions' sakes, I will now say, "Peace be within you." 9   For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.
