Pray for the peace of Jerusalem

1
I was glad when people said to me, “We should go to the temple of Yahweh in Jerusalem!”
2
Now we are here, standing inside the gates of Jerusalem.
3
We can see that Jerusalem was a carefully built city. Every part of the city was built to fit together within the city as a whole.
4
We people of the tribes of Israel who belong to Yahweh can now go up there, as Yahweh commanded that we should do, so we can thank him.
5
There are the thrones, the thrones that the kings of Israel sat when they ruled Israel. These are the thrones of the descendants of King David.
6
Pray that there will be peace in Jerusalem! “I pray that those who love Jerusalem will succeed in life.
7
I pray that there may be peace inside the walls of the city and that people who are inside the palaces may be safe.”
8
For the sake of my relatives and friends, “I pray that people will live peacefully inside Jerusalem.”
9
And because I love the temple of Yahweh our God, “I pray that things will go well for the people who live in Jerusalem.”

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem

1
I was glad when they said to me,Let’s go to the LORD’s house!”
2
Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem!
3
Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together,
4
where the tribes go up, even the LORD’s tribes, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the LORD’s name.
5
For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David’s house.
6
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.
7
Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces.
8
For my brothers’ and companions’ sakes, I will now say, “Peace be within you.”
9
For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.
