1 ωδη των αναβαθμων ευφρανθην επι τοις ειρηκοσιν μοι εις οικον κυριου πορευσομεθα	1 A Canticle in steps. I rejoiced in the things that were said to me: “We shall go into the house of the Lord.”
2 εστωτες ησαν οι ποδες ημων εν ταις αυλαις σου ιερουσαλημ	2 Our feet were standing in your courts, O Jerusalem.
3 ιερουσαλημ οικοδομουμενη ως πολις ης η μετοχη αυτης επι το αυτο	3 Jerusalem has been built as a city, whose participation is unto itself.
4 εκει γαρ ανεβησαν αι φυλαι φυλαι κυριου μαρτυριον τω ισραηλ του εξομολογησασθαι τω ονοματι κυριου	4 For to that place, the tribes ascended, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to confess to the name of the Lord.
5 οτι εκει εκαθισαν θρονοι εις κρισιν θρονοι επι οικον δαυιδ	5 For in that place, seats have sat down in judgment, seats above the house of David.
6 ερωτησατε δη τα εις ειρηνην την ιερουσαλημ και ευθηνια τοις αγαπωσιν σε	6 Petition for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem, and for abundance for those who love you.
7 γενεσθω δη ειρηνη εν τη δυναμει σου και ευθηνια εν ταις πυργοβαρεσιν σου	7 Let peace be in your virtue, and abundance in your towers.
