2Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
3Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:
5For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.
6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
7Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.
8For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.
9Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.
1(A Song of degrees.) Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.
3Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
1(A Song of degrees of David.) If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;
2If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:
3Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:
4Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
5Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
6Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
8Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
