2 Our feet shall stand within thy she'arim, O Yerushalayim.

3 Yerushalayim is built as an Ir bound firmly together;

4 That is where the Shevatim (tribes) go up, the Shivtei Hashem, according to the edut l'Yisroel (the statute to Yisroel), to give thanks unto the Shem of Hashem.

5 For there are set kise'ot l'mishpat (thrones of judgment), the kise'ot of the Bais Dovid.

6 Sha'alu shalom Yerushalayim (pray for the peace of Jerusalem); they shall prosper that love thee.

7 Shalom be within thy wall, and security within thy citadels.

8 L'ma'an (for the sake of) my achim and companions, I will now say, Shalom be within thee.

9 L'ma'an the Bais Hashem Eloheinu I will seek thy tov.
