99 I rejoiced when they said unto me: 'Let us go unto the house of the Lord.' Our feet are standing Within thy gates, O Jerusalem; Jerusalem, that art builded As a city that is compact together; Whither the tribes went up, even the tribes of the Lord, As a testimony unto Israel, To give thanks unto the name of the Lord. For there were set thrones for judgment, The thrones of the house of David. And prosperity within thy palaces. For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say: 'Peace be within thee.' For the sake of the house of the Lord our God I will seek thy good. Psalm 122 MEDITATIONS For every day of the month 1. "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?" 2.
