1 I was glad because they said to me, We will go into the house of the Lord.
1I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go unto the house of Jehovah.
2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.
2At last our feet were inside your doors, O Jerusalem.
2Our feet are standing Within thy gates, O Jerusalem,
3 Jerusalem, which art built as a city that is compact together,
3O Jerusalem, you are like a town which is well joined together;
3Jerusalem, that art builded As a city that is compact together;
4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of Jah, a testimony to Israel, to give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.
4To which the tribes went up, even the tribes of the Lord, for a witness to Israel, to give praise to the name of the Lord.
4Whither the tribes go up, even the tribes of Jehovah, Foran ordinance for Israel, To give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.
5 For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David.
5For there seats for the judges were placed, even the rulers' seats of the line of David.
5For there are set thrones for judgment, The thrones of the house of David.
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
6O make prayers for the peace of Jerusalem; may they whose love is given to you do well.
6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: They shall prosper that love thee.
7 Peace be within thy bulwarks, prosperity within thy palaces.
7May peace be inside your walls, and wealth in your noble houses.
7Peace be within thy walls, And prosperity within thy palaces.
