1 A Song of the going up. Of David. I was glad because they said to me, We will go into the house of the Lord.
2 At last our feet were inside your doors, O Jerusalem.
3 O Jerusalem, you are like a town which is well joined together;
4 To 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.
5 For there seats for the judges were placed, even the rulers' seats of the line of David.
6 O make prayers for the peace of Jerusalem; may they whose love is given to you do well.
7 May peace be inside your walls, and wealth in your noble houses.
8 Because of my brothers and friends, I will now say, Let peace be with you.
9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will be working for your good.
1 En sang ved festreisene; av David. Jeg gleder mig ved dem som sier til mig: Vi vil gå til Herrens hus.
2 Våre føtter står i dine porter, Jerusalem!
3 Jerusalem, du velbyggede, lik en by som er tett sammenføiet,
4 hvor stammene drar op, Herrens stammer, efter en lov for Israel, for å prise Herrens navn!
5 For der er stoler satt til dom, stoler for Davids hus.
6 Bed om fred for Jerusalem! La det gå dem vel som elsker dig!
7 Der være fred innen din voll, ro i dine saler!
8 For mine brødres og mine venners skyld vil jeg si: Fred være i dig!
9 For Herrens, vår Guds huses skyld vil jeg søke ditt beste.
