| 1 | A Canticle in steps. I rejoiced in the things that were said to me: "We shall go into the house of the Lord." |
| 2 | Our feet were standing in your courts, O Jerusalem. |
| 3 | Jerusalem has been built as a city, whose participation is unto itself. |
| 4 | For to that place, the tribes ascended, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to confess to the name of the Lord. |
| 5 | For in that place, seats have sat down in judgment, seats above the house of David. |
| 6 | Petition for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem, and for abundance for those who love you. |
| 7 | Let peace be in your virtue, and abundance in your towers. |
| 8 | For the sake of my brothers and my neighbors, I spoke peace about you. |
| 9 | For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I sought good things for you. |
