so that they might declare
the name of Yahweh in Zion
and His praise in Jerusalem,

in the courts of the Lord’s house—
within you, Jerusalem.
Hallelujah!

Our feet are standing
within your gates, Jerusalem—

Jerusalem, built as a city should be,
solidly joined together,

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

Jerusalem—the mountains surround her.
And the Lord surrounds His people,
both now and forever.

May the Lord bless you from Zion,
so that you will see the prosperity of Jerusalem
all the days of your life

May the Lord be praised from Zion;
He dwells in Jerusalem.
Hallelujah!

If I forget you, Jerusalem,
may my right hand forget its skill.

May my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth
if I do not remember you,
if I do not exalt Jerusalem as my greatest joy!

Remember, Lord, what the Edomites said
that day at Jerusalem:
“Destroy it! Destroy it
down to its foundations!”

The Lord rebuilds Jerusalem;
He gathers Israel’s exiled people.

Exalt the Lord, Jerusalem;
praise your God, Zion!
