¹ The songe of the steares. I was glad, when they sayed vnto me: we wyll go into the house of the Lorde.

² Oure fete shall stande in thy gates O Ierusalem.

³ Ierusalem is buylded as a cytye, that is at vnyte in it selfe.

⁴ For ther the tribes go vp, euen the tribes of the Lorde: to testyfye vnto Israel, to geue thanckes vnto the name of the Lorde.

⁵ For there is the seate of iudgmente, euen the seate of the house of Dauyd.

⁶ O praye for the peace of Ierusalem, they shall prospere that loue the.

⁷ Peace be wyth thy walles, and plenteousnes within thy palaces.

⁸ For my brethren and companions sakes, I wyll wysh the prosperite.

⁹ Yea because of the house of the Lord oure God, I wyll seke to do the good.
