1A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY DAVID. I have rejoiced in those saying to me, “We go to the house of YHWH.”

2Our feet have been standing in your gates, O Jerusalem!

3Jerusalem—the built one—[Is] as a city that is joined to itself together.

4For there tribes have gone up, "" Tribes of YAH, companies of Israel, "" To give thanks to the Name of YHWH.

5For there thrones of judgment have sat, "" Thrones of the house of David.

6Ask [for] the peace of Jerusalem, "" Those loving you are at rest.

7Peace is in your bulwark, rest in your high places,

8For the sake of my brothers and my companions, "" Please let me speak, “Peace [be] in you.”

9For the sake of the house of our God YHWH, "" I seek good for you!
