1A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. A psalm of David. I was so happy when they said to me, “Let's go the house of the Lord.”
2Now we're standing inside your gates, Jerusalem!
3Jerusalem is built as a city where people can be together.
4All the tribes—the tribes of the Lord—go up there, following the command given to Israel to give thanks to the Lord.
5This is where the thrones are placed, where judgment is given, the thrones of the house of David.
