1 I was glad, when they were saying unto me, Unto the house of Yahweh, let us go!

2 Standing are our feet, within thy gates, O Jerusalem!

3 Jerusalem! that hath been builded, A true city, all joined together as one:

4 Whither have come up the tribes, The tribes of Yah, A testimony to Israel, To give thanks unto the Name of Yahweh:

5 For there are set—Thrones for justice, Thrones for the house David.

6 Ask ye for the peace of Jerusalem, They shall prosper, who love thee!

7 Peace be within thy walls, prosperity within thy palaces:

8 For the sake of my brethren and friends, Oh, might I speak [saying], Peace be within thee!

9 For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, will I seek blessing for thee.
