1A Song of degrees of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.1I rejoiced with those who said to me, "Let us go to the house of the LORD."
2Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.2Our feet were standing within your gates, Jerusalem--
3Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:3Jerusalem, built as a city should be, solidly united,
4Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.4where the tribes, the LORD's tribes, go up to give thanks to the name of the LORD. (This is an ordinance for Israel.)
5For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.5There, thrones for judgment are placed, thrones of the house of David.
6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.6Pray for the well-being of Jerusalem: "May those who love you be secure;
7Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.7may there be peace within your walls, security within your fortresses."
8For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.8Because of my brothers and friends, I will say, "May peace be in you."
9Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.9Because of the house of the LORD our God, I will pursue your prosperity.
