1I rejoiced when they said to me,
“Let us go to the house of the LORD!”
1I rejoiced when they said to me,
“Let us go to the house of the LORD!”
2Our feet were standing in your gates, Jerusalem.
3Jerusalem, built as a city firmly bound as one,
4To which the tribes, the tribes of the LORD, go up —
A decree for Israel — to praise the name of the LORD.
5For the thrones there for judgment sit: thrones for David’s house!
6Pray now that peace may be upon Jerusalem!
May those who cherish you have full security.
7Peace be within your walls, safety in your towers.
8For my friends’ and brothers’ sake, I’ll say, “Peace be in you.”
9For the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good!
