'Gates' in the Bible
Be gracious to me, LORD, take note of my affliction, because of those who hate me. You snatch me away from the gates of death,
so I may declare everything for which you should be praised in the gates of the daughter of Zion, so I will rejoice in your deliverance.
Lift up your heads, gates! Be lifted up, ancient doors, so the King of Glory may come in.
Lift up your heads, gates! Be lifted up, ancient doors, so the King of Glory may come in.
The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than the dwellings of Jacob.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise. Thank him and bless his name,
For he shattered bronze gates and cut through iron bars.
They loathed all food, and even reached the gates of death.
Open for me the righteous gates so I may enter through them to give thanks to the LORD.
For he has strengthened the bars of your gates, blessing your children within you.
