1 [A Song of degrees. Of David.] I rejoiced when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of Jehovah.2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.3 Jerusalem, which art built as a city that is compact together,4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of Jah, a testimony to Israel, to give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.5 For there are set thrones for 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 bulwarks, prosperity within thy palaces.8 For my brethren and companions' sakes I will say, Peace be within thee!9 Because of the house of Jehovah our God I will seek thy good.
