The Joy of Going to the House of the Lord

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

1 I was glad when they said to me,
a“Let us go into the house of the Lord.” 
2 Our feet have been standing
Within your gates, O Jerusalem!
3 Jerusalem is built
As a city that is acompact together, 
4 aWhere the tribes go up,
The tribes of the Lord,
To bthe Testimony of Israel,
To give thanks to the name of the Lord. 
5 aFor thrones are set there for judgment,
The thrones of the house of David. 
6 aPray for the peace of Jerusalem:
“May they prosper who love you. 
7 Peace be within your walls,
Prosperity within your palaces.”
