1 [the] song of The ascents of David I rejoiced in [those who] said to me [the] house of Yahweh let us go.

Wallfahrtslieder. Von David. Ich freute mich, als man zu mir sprach: “Laßt uns zum Tempel Jahwes gehn!”

2 Standing they were feet our in gates your O Jerusalem.

Unsere Füße stehen in deinen Thoren, Jerusalem!

Jerusalem, du wiedergebaute, wie eine Stadt, die allzumal zusammengefügt ist,

wohin die Stämme hinaufziehen, die Stämme Jahs, nach dem Gesetz für Israel, um dem Namen Jahwes zu danken.

Denn dort stehen Gerichtssessel, Sessel des Hauses Davids.
