English Standard Version ESV
1 I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord! ”
2 Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!
3 Jerusalem— built as a city that is bound firmly together,
4 to which the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, as was decreed for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the Lord.
5 There thrones for judgment were set, the thrones of the house of David.
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! “May they be secure who love you!
7 Peace be within your walls and security within your towers! ”
8 For my brothers and companions’ sake I will say, “Peace be within you! ”
9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek your good.
