1I was glad when they said to me,
“Let us go to the house of the LORD.”
2Our feet are standing in your gates,
O Jerusalem.
3Jerusalem is built up
as a city united together,
4where the tribes go up,
the tribes of the LORD,
as a testimony for Israel,
to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
5For there the thrones of judgment stand,
the thrones of the house of David.
— Psalm 122:1-5
