Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: for we are greatly filled with contempt.
Jerusalem is builded As a city that is compact together:
Jerusalem, which is built as a city that is compacted together–
Jerusalem, that art builded As a city that is compact together;
Jerusalem is built like a city joined together in unity.
Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us. For we have been filled with utter disdain.
Jerusalem—built as a city that is bound firmly together,
And David dwelt in the castle, and called it, The city of David: and built round about from Mello and inwards.
So we built the wall, and joined it all together unto the half thereof: and the heart of the people was excited to work.
