Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1I rejoiced at the things that were said to me: We shall go into the house of the Lord.
1Canticum graduum. [Lætatus sum in his quæ dicta sunt mihi: In domum Domini ibimus.
2Our feet were standing in thy courts, O Jerusalem.
2Stantes erant pedes nostri in atriis tuis, Jerusalem.
3Jerusalem, which is built as a city, which is compact together.
3Jerusalem, quæ ædificatur ut civitas, cujus participatio ejus in idipsum.
4For thither did the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to praise the name of the Lord.
4Illuc enim ascenderunt tribus, tribus Domini: testimonium Israël, ad confitendum nomini Domini.
5Because their seats have sat in judgment, seats upon the house of David.
5Quia illic sederunt sedes in judicio, sedes super domum David.
6Pray ye for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem: and abundance for them that love thee.
6Rogate quæ ad pacem sunt Jerusalem, et abundantia diligentibus te.
7Let peace be in thy strength: and abundance in thy towers.
7Fiat pax in virtute tua, et abundantia in turribus tuis.
8For the sake of my brethren, and of my neighbours, I spoke peace of thee.
8Propter fratres meos et proximos meos, loquebar pacem de te.
9Because of the house of the Lord our God, I have sought good things for thee.
9Propter domum Domini Dei nostri, quæsivi bona tibi.]
