A Song of Ascents. Of David.
1	I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go into the house of the LORD.”
2	Our feet have been standing Within your gates, O Jerusalem!
3	Jerusalem is built As a city that is compact together,
4	Where the tribes go up, The tribes of the LORD, To the Testimony of Israel, To give thanks to the name of the LORD.
5	For thrones are set there for judgment, The thrones of the house of David.
6	Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you.
7	Peace be within your walls, Prosperity within your palaces.”
8	For the sake of my brethren and companions, I will now say, “Peace be within you.”
9	Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek your good.
