A Song of degrees of David. 1 I was glad when they said to me, Let us go into the house of Jehovah.
2 Our feet shall stand within your gates, Oh Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together:
4 Where the tribes go up, the tribes of Jehovah, to the testimony of Israel, to give thanks to the name of Jehovah.
5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.
6 Pray for the completeness  of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love you.
7 completeness  be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces.
8 For my brothers and companions' sakes, I will now say, completeness  be within you.
9 Because of the house of Jehovah  our God I will seek your good.




King James Version (KJV)
1 A Song of degrees of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.
2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:
4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.
5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
7 Peace be within thy walls, [and] prosperity within thy palaces.
8 For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace [be] within thee.
9 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.

5 For there have sat thrones of judgment, Thrones of the house of David.
6 Ask ye the peace of Jerusalem, At rest are those loving thee.
