• 1. &lt;A Song of the going up. Of David.&gt;<br>
    I was glad because they said to me, We will go into the house of the Lord.
  • 2. At last our feet were inside your doors, O Jerusalem.
  • 3. O Jerusalem, you are like a town which is well joined together;
  • 4. To which the tribes went up, even the tribes of the Lord, for a witness to Israel, to give praise to the name of the Lord.
  • 5. For there seats for the judges were placed, even the rulers' seats of the line of David.
  • 6. O make prayers for the peace of Jerusalem; may they whose love is given to you do well.
  • 7. May peace be inside your walls, and wealth in your noble houses.
  • 8. Because of my brothers and friends, I will now say, Let peace be with you.
  • 9. Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will be working for your good.
