Holman Christian Standard Bible, 2009 (HCSB)

Back to Bible
1 I rejoiced with those who said to me, “Let us go to the house of the LORD.” ⓐ
2 Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem ⓑ —
3 Jerusalem, built as a city should be, solidly joined together, ⓒ
4 where the tribes, Yahweh’s tribes, go up to give thanks to the name of Yahweh. ⓓ (This is an ordinance for Israel. ⓔ)
5 There, thrones for judgment are placed, thrones of the house of David. ⓕ
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May those who love you prosper; ⓖ
7 may there be peace within your walls, prosperity within your fortresses.” ⓗ
8 Because of my brothers and friends, I will say, “Peace be with you.” ⓘ
9 Because of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good. ⓙ
