1 I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord!”
2 Our feet have been standingwithin your gates, O Jerusalem!
3 Jerusalem—built as a citythat 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.
