* A Song of degrees * of David.
I was glad when they said unto me,
Let us go ainto the house of the Lord.
Within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem is bbuilded
As a city that cis compact together:
4 dWhither the tribes go up, the tribes of the eLord,
Unto fthe testimony of Israel,
To give thanks unto the name of the Lord.
5 For gthere * are set thrones of judgment,
The thrones of the house of David.
6 hPray for the peace of Jerusalem:
They shall prosper that love thee.
7 Peace be within thy iwalls,
And prosperity within thy ipalaces.
8 For my brethren and companions’ sakes,
I will now say, kPeace be within thee.
9 Because of the house of the Lord our God
I will lseek thy good.
