Go to the House of Yahweh
1
I was glad when they said to me, "Let us go to the house of Yahweh."
2
Our feet are standing Within your gates, O Jerusalem,
3
Jerusalem, which is built As a city joined altogether;
4
To which the tribes, the tribes of Yah, go up-- A testimony for Israel-- To give thanks to the name of Yahweh.
5
For there, thrones sit for judgment, The thrones of the house of David.
6
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: "May they prosper who love you.
7
May peace be within your walls, And tranquility within your palaces."
8
For the sake of my brothers and my friends, I will now say, "May peace be within you."
9
For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek your good.
