Our feet are standing Within your gates, Jerusalem; --

Jerusalem, that is built As a city that is compact together; --
|

Where the tribes go up, even Yah's tribes, According to an ordinance for Israel, To give thanks to the name of Yahweh. --

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. They will prosper who love you. --

Peace be within your walls, And prosperity within your palaces. --

For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek your good. Psalm 123 A Song of Ascents. --
