International Standard Version | King James Bible |
1I rejoiced when they kept on asking me, "Let us go to the LORD's Temple." | 1A Song of degrees of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD. |
2Our feet are standing inside your gates, Jerusalem. | 2Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem. |
3Jerusalem stands built up, a city knitted together. | 3Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together: |
4To it the tribes ascend— the tribes of the LORD— as decreed to Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD. | 4Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD. |
5For thrones are established there for judgment, thrones of the house of David. | 5For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David. |
6Pray for peace for Jerusalem: "May those who love you be at peace! | 6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee. |
7May peace be within your ramparts, and prosperity within your fortresses." | 7Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces. |
8For the sake of my relatives and friends I will now say, "May there be peace within you." | 8For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee. |
9For the sake of the Temple of the LORD our God, I will seek your welfare. | 9Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good. |
