Psalms 122

1 A song of ascents. Of David. I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the LORD.”

Bil sem vesel, ko so mi rekli: »Pojdimo v Gospodovo hišo.«

2 Our feet are standing in your gates, O Jerusalem.

Naša stopala bodo stala znotraj tvojih velikih vrat, oh Jeruzalem.

3 Jerusalem is built up as a city united together,

Jeruzalem je zgrajen kakor mesto, ki je stisnjeno skupaj,

4 where the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.

kamor se vzpenjajo rodovi, Gospodovi rodovi, v pričevanje Izraelu, da dajejo zahvalo Gospodovemu imenu.

5 For there the thrones of judgment stand, the thrones of the house of David.

Kajti tam so postavljeni sodni prestoli, prestoli Davidove hiše.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May those who love you prosper.

Mólite za mir v Jeruzalemu. Tisti, ki te ljubijo, bodo uspevali.

7 May there be peace within your walls, and prosperity inside your fortresses.”

Mir bodi znotraj tvojih zidov in uspevanje v tvojih palačah.

8 For the sake of my brothers and friends, I will say, “Peace be within you.”

Zaradi mojih bratov in zaradi družabnikov bom torej rekel: »Mir bodi znotraj tebe.«

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

Zaradi hiše Gospoda, našega Boga, bom iskal tvoje dobro.
