Pray for the peace of Jerusalem

1
I was glad when they said to me,Let us go to the house of the LORD.”
2
Our feet are standing in your gates, O Jerusalem.
3
Jerusalem is built up as a city united together,
4
where the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
5
For there the thrones of judgment stand, the thrones of the house of David.
6
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:May those who love you prosper.(a)
7
May there be peace within your walls, and prosperity (b) inside your fortresses.”
8
For the sake of my brothers and friends, I will say, “Peace be within you.”
9
For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your prosperity.
