The Joy of Going to the House of the LORD

I was glad when they said to me,
“Let us go into the house of the LORD.”

Within your gates, O Jerusalem!

Psa 122:3Jerusalem is built
As a city that is compact together,

Psa 122:4Where the tribes go up,
The tribes of the LORD,
To the Testimony of Israel,
To give thanks to the name of the LORD.

“May they prosper who love you.

Prosperity within your palaces.”

I will now say, “Peace be within you.”

I will seek your good.
