Psalms

A song of ascents. Of David.

1I was glad when they said to me,“Let us go to the house of the LORD.”

2Our feet are standing in your gates,O Jerusalem.

3Jerusalem is built upas a city united together,

4where the tribes go up,the tribes of the LORD,as a testimony for Israel,to give thanks to the name of the LORD.

5For there the thrones of judgment stand,the thrones of the house of David.

6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:“May those who love you prosper.

7May there be peace within your walls,and prosperityinside your fortresses.”

8For the sake of my brothers and friends,I will say, “Peace be within you.”

9For the sake of the house of the LORD our God,I will seek your prosperity.

大卫上行之诗。

1人对我说：我们往耶和华的殿去， 我就欢喜。

2耶路撒冷啊， 我们的脚站在你的门内。

3耶路撒冷被建造， 如同连络整齐的一座城。

4众支派，就是耶和华的支派，上那里去， 按以色列的常例称赞耶和华的名。

5因为在那里设立审判的宝座， 就是大卫家的宝座。

6你们要为耶路撒冷求平安！ 耶路撒冷啊，爱你的人必然兴旺！

7愿你城中平安！ 愿你宫内兴旺！

8因我弟兄和同伴的缘故，我要说： 愿平安在你中间！

9因耶和华—我们 神殿的缘故， 我要为你求福！
