Psalmi 122

1 Hodočasnička pjesma. Davidova. Obradovah se kad mi rekoše: “Hajdemo u Dom Jahvin!”

A Song of Ascents. By David. I was glad when they said to me, “Let’s go to the LORD’s house!”

2 Eto, noge nam već stoje na vratima tvojim, Jeruzaleme.

Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem!

3 Jeruzaleme, grade čvrsto sazdani i kao u jedno saliveni!

Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together,

4 Onamo uzlaze plemena, plemena Jahvina, po Zakonu Izraelovu, da slave ime Jahvino.

where the tribes go up, even the LORD’s tribes, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the LORD’s name.

5 Ondje stoje sudačke stolice, stolice doma Davidova.

For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David’s house.

6 Molite za mir Jeruzalemov! Blago onima koji tebe ljube!

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.

7 Neka bude mir u zidinama tvojim i pokoj u tvojim palačama!

Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces.

8 Radi braće i prijatelja svojih klicat ću: “Mir tebi!”

For my brothers’ and companions’ sakes, I will now say, “Peace be within you.”

9 Radi Doma Jahve, Boga našega, za sreću tvoju ja ću moliti.

For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.
