i._o to_o begin_v with_o the_o first_o quaery_n why_o we_o be_v to_o pray_v for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n this_o very_a psalm_n give_v we_o two_o reason_n upon_o this_o account_n 1._o because_o in_o jerusalem_n be_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o god_n of_o israel_n where_o not_o only_o the_o inhabitant_n worship_v daily_o but_o all_o the_o man_n of_o israel_n from_o all_o part_n of_o the_o land_n be_v to_o assemble_v thrice_o in_o the_o year_n to_o worship_v the_o lord_n for_o so_o we_o read_v deut._n 16._o 16_o 17._o three_o time_n in_o the_o year_n shall_v all_o thy_o male_n appear_v before_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n in_o the_o place_n which_o he_o shall_v choose_v in_o the_o feast_n of_o unleavened_a bread_n in_o the_o feast_n of_o week_n and_o in_o the_o feast_n of_o tabernacle_n and_o they_o shall_v not_o appear_v before_o the_o lord_n empty_a every_o man_n shall_v give_v as_o he_o be_v able_a according_a to_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n which_o he_o have_v give_v thou_o jerusalem_n be_v build_v as_o a_o city_n that_o be_v at_o unity_n in_o itself_o verse_n 3_o 4._o of_o this_o psalm_n whither_o the_o tribe_n go_v up_o the_o tribe_n of_o the_o lord_n unto_o the_o testimony_n of_o israel_n to_o give_v thanks_o unto_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n pray_v you_o therefore_o for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n 2._o because_o in_o jerusalem_n be_v the_o civil_a judicature_n erect_v there_o the_o archive_v of_o the_o kingdom_n be_v deposit_v there_o the_o right_n of_o the_o people_n be_v resolve_v there_o their_o liberty_n and_o property_n be_v maintain_v and_o thither_o they_o have_v recourse_n upon_o all_o emergency_n where_o their_o monarch_n on_o his_o throne_n with_o his_o parliament_n about_o he_o enact_v law_n for_o the_o security_n of_o the_o whole_a and_o the_o several_a court_n of_o judicature_n explain_v they_o to_o they_o for_o their_o good_a there_o be_v set_v throne_n of_o judgement_n the_o throne_n of_o the_o house_n of_o david_n v._o 5._o pray_v you_o therefore_o for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n these_o be_v the_o two_o reason_n why_o holy_a david_n so_o earnest_o exhort_v his_o people_n to_o pray_v for_o the_o peace_n of_o that_o great_a metropolis_n there_o god_n worship_n be_v keep_v up_o in_o its_o primitive_a purity_n there_o reside_v david_n himself_o a_o man_n after_o god_n own_o heart_n who_o the_o people_n make_v their_o court_n to_o and_o be_v preserve_v according_a to_o law_n in_o all_o their_o right_n both_o sacred_a and_o civil_a this_o be_v jerusalem_n where_o all_o israel_n be_v oblige_v to_o worship_n the_o lord_n in_o his_o beauty_n of_o holiness_n and_o where_o alone_o they_o can_v have_v redress_n for_o their_o civil_a grievance_n well_o may_v a_o place_n of_o this_o vast_a importance_n be_v deem_v as_o a_o subject_a worthy_a of_o their_o hearty_a prayer_n and_o most_o solemn_a entreaty_n to_o heaven_n peace_n be_v within_o thy_o wall_n and_o plenteousness_n within_o thy_o palace_n for_o my_o brethren_n and_o companion_n sake_n i_o will_v now_o say_v peace_n be_v within_o thou_o because_o of_o the_o house_n of_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n i_o will_v seek_v thy_o good_a be_v holy_a david_n own_a word_n rapture_n all_o elegancy_n which_o alone_o so_o noble_a a_o subject_a can_v inspire_v he_o first_o pray_v himself_o for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n then_o exhort_v other_o to_o join_v with_o he_o and_o then_o as_o know_v without_o endeavour_n prayer_n avail_v not_o he_o close_v the_o scene_n with_o resolution_n worthy_a of_o he_o for_o my_o brethren_n and_o companion_n sake_n i_o will_v now_o say_v peace_n be_v within_o thou_o because_o of_o the_o house_n of_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n i_o will_v seek_v to_o do_v thou_o good_a
