⁵ May the Lord continually bless you from Zion.
    May you see Jerusalem prosper as long as you live.

³ May the Lord, who made heaven and earth,
    bless you from Jerusalem.^[a]

² May he send you help from his sanctuary
    and strengthen you from Jerusalem.^[a]

²⁰ Instead, you will see Zion as a place of holy festivals.
    You will see Jerusalem, a city quiet and secure.
It will be like a tent whose ropes are taut
    and whose stakes are firmly fixed.

²⁶ Bless the one who comes in the name of the Lord.
    We bless you from the house of the Lord.

³ People from many nations will come and say,
“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
    to the house of Jacob’s God.
There he will teach us his ways,
    and we will walk in his paths.”
For the Lord’s teaching will go out from Zion;
    his word will go out from Jerusalem.

⁶ Pray for peace in Jerusalem.
    May all who love this city prosper.

²¹ The Lord be praised from Zion,
    for he lives here in Jerusalem.

Praise the Lord!
