I was glad when they said unto me: We will go into the house of the Lord. Ev'n the tribes of the Lord, for thither the tribes go up, to testify unto Israel, and to give thanks unto the Name of the Lord. For there is the seat of judgement: ev'n the seat of the house of David.. O pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee. Peace be within thy walls: and plenteousness within thy palaces.
