  • 2. Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;
  • 3. Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is compact together;
  • 4. where the tribes go up, even Yah's tribes, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the name of Yahweh.
  • 5. For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David's house.
  • 6. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.
  • 7. Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces.
  • 8. For my brothers' and companions' sakes, I will now say, "Peace be within you."
