| 1 | I rejoiced at the things that were said to me: We shall go into the house of the Lord. | Canticum graduum. Laetatus sum in his quae dicta sunt mihi: In domum Domini ibimus. | Ὠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν. Εὐφράνθην ἐπὶ τοῖς εἰρηκόσι μοι, εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου πορευσόμεθα. |
| 2 | Our feet were standing in thy courts, O Jerusalem. | Stantes erant pedes nostri in atriis tuis, Ierusalem. | Ἑστῶτες ἦσαν οἱ πόδες ἡμῶν ἐν ταῖς αὐλαῖς σου Ἱερουσαλήμ. |
| 3 | Jerusalem, which is built as a city, which is compact together. | Ierusalem, quae aedificatur ut civitas, cuius participatio eius in idipsum. | Ἱερουσαλὴμ οἰκοδομουμένη ὡς πόλις, ἧς ἡ μετοχὴ αὐτῆς ἐπιτοαυτό. |
| 4 | For thither did the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to praise the name of the Lord. | Illuc enim ascenderunt tribus, tribus Domini: testimonium Israël, ad confitendum nomini Domini. | Ἐκεῖ γὰρ ἀνέβησαν αἱ φυλαὶ, φυλαὶ Κυρίου μαρτύριον τῷ Ἰσραὴλ, τοῦ ἐξομολογήσασθαι τῷ ὀνόματι Κυρίου. |
| 5 | Because their seats have sat in judgment, seats upon the house of David. | Quia illic sederunt sedes in iudicio, sedes super domum David. | Ὅτι ἐκεῖ ἐκάθισαν θρόνοι εἰς κρίσιν, θρόνοι ἐπὶ οἶκον Δαυίδ. |
| 6 | Pray ye for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem: and abundance for them that love thee. | Rogate quae ad pacem sunt Ierusalem, et abundantia diligentibus te. | Ἐρωτήσατε δὴ τὰ εἰς εἰρήνην τὴν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ εὐθηνία τοῖς ἀγαπῶσί σε. |
| 7 | Let peace be in thy strength: and abundance in thy towers. | Fiat pax in virtute tua, et abundantia in turribus tuis. | Γενέσθω δὴ εἰρήνη ἐν τῇ δυνάμει σου, καὶ εὐθηνία ἐν ταῖς πυργοβάρεσί σου. |
| 8 | For the sake of my brethren, and of my neighbours, I spoke peace of thee. | Propter fratres meos et proximos meos, loquebar pacem de te. | Ἕνεκα τῶν ἀδελφῶν μου καὶ τῶν πλησίον μου, ἐλάλουν δὴ εἰρήνην περὶ σοῦ. |
| 9 | Because of the house of the Lord our God, I have sought good things for thee. | Propter domum Domini Dei nostri, quaesivi bona tibi. | Ἕνεκα τοῦ οἴκου Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐξεζήτησα ἀγαθά σοι. |
