Lyics1 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.
