in the courts of the house of the Lord, in your midst, O Jerusalem. Praise the Lord!
who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God!
Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; bring an offering, and come into his courts!
Jerusalem—built as a city that is bound firmly together, to which the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, as was decreed for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the Lord.
Open to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter through them and give thanks to the Lord. This is the gate of the Lord; the righteous shall enter through it.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name!
but I have chosen Jerusalem that my name may be there, and I have chosen David to be over my people Israel.’
