**1 **\{A Song of degrees of David.} 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.
