A Song of Ascents. By David. I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to Yahweh's house!" [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." [9] For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek your good.
