The city we have is strong; * its walls and ramparts protect us.

Open its gates; * let its honest people in.

They are faithful; * and their mind is firm.

    You keep them prosperous, * because they trust in you.

    Trust in the Lord forever! * for Yahweh is an everlasting Rock...

       The path of the honest man is straight; * you make his way level and smooth.

       Following the ways you determine, * Yahweh, we trust in you.

    I long for you * and want to keep you in mind.

    My heart longs for you in the night; * my spirit within me seeks you.

Your decisions are a light to the world, * that everyone may learn to act rightly...

Lord, you have made us prosper, * for all our works are your doing.
