Song
of
degrees
of
David.
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.
