Psalms 122

1 A Song of the going up. Of David. I was glad because they said to me, We will go into the house of the Lord.

Se yon chante David pou yo chante lè y'ap moute lavil Jerizalèm. Ala kontan mwen te kontan lè yo di m': -Ann ale lakay Seyè a.

2 At last our feet were inside your doors, O Jerusalem.

Koulye a, men li: nou rive devan pòtay lavil Jerizalèm.

3 O Jerusalem, you are like a town which is well joined together;

Jerizalèm, ou se yon lavil yo rebati, yon lavil kote tout bagay byen ranje.

4 To which the tribes went up, even the tribes of the Lord, for a witness to Israel, to give praise to the name of the Lord.

Se la tout branch fanmi yo ap vin sanble. Tout branch fanmi pèp Seyè a, se la y'ap vini pou di Seyè a mèsi, jan li te ba yo lòd pou yo fè a.

5 For there seats for the judges were placed, even the rulers' seats of the line of David.

Se la pitit pitit David yo rete pou yo dirije, pou yo gouvènen pep la.

6 O make prayers for the peace of Jerusalem; may they whose love is given to you do well.

Lapriyè Bondye pou pa gen dezòd lavil Jerizalèm ankò. Se pou tout moun ki renmen ou yo viv ak kè poze.

7 May peace be inside your walls, and wealth in your noble houses.

Se pou pa gen lagè sou ranpa lavil la. Se pou nan palè wa a tout moun viv ak kè poze.

8 Because of my brothers and friends, I will now say, Let peace be with you.

Poutèt fanmi m' yo ak zanmi m' yo, m'ap di: -Benediksyon Bondye sou lavil la!

9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will be working for your good.

Poutèt kay Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki nan lavil la, m'ap mande Bondye pou fè kè ou kontan.
