[[A song of degrees, or Psalm Chapter of David.]][1]I rejoiced, when they said to me, We will go into the house of the Lord.[2]Our feet shall stand in thy gates, O Jerusalem.[3]Jerusalem is builded as a city, that is compact together in itself:[4]Whereunto the tribes, even the tribes of the Lord go up according to the testimony to Israel, to praise the name of the Lord.[5]For there are thrones set for judgment, even the thrones of the house of David.[6]Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: let them prosper that love thee.[7]Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.[8]For my brethren and neighbors' sakes I will wish thee now prosperity.[9]Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will procure thy wealth.
