A Song of Ascents. Of David.
1 I was glad when they said to me,
“Let us go into the house of the Lord.”
Within your gates, O Jerusalem!
As a city that is compact together,
The tribes of the Lord,
[a]To the Testimony of Israel,
To give thanks to the name of the Lord.
The thrones of the house of David.
“May they prosper who love you.
Prosperity within your palaces.”
I will now say, “Peace be within you.”
I will seek your good.
