< 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.
O LIOLI aku la au, ia lakou i olelo mai ai ia'u, E hele kakou iloko o ka hale o Iehova.
2 At last our feet were inside your doors, O Jerusalem.
E ku no ko kakou mau wawae, Maloko o kou mau pukapa, e Ierusalema.
3 O Jerusalem, you are like a town which is well joined together;
Ua hoonohonohoia o Ierusalema, E like me ke kulanakauhale i kapiliia.
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.
Pii aku no na ohana malaila, Na ohana hoi o Iehova, me kana i kauoha ai i ka Iseraela, E hoolea aku i ka inoa o Iehova.
5 For there seats for the judges were placed, even the rulers' seats of the line of David.
No ka mea, ua hoonohoia malaila na nohoalii no ka hoopono, Na nohoalii no ka ohana a Davida.
6 O make prayers for the peace of Jerusalem; may they whose love is given to you do well.
E noi aku oukou i maluhia o Ierusalema; E pomaikai auanei ka poe e aloha aku ia oe.
7 May peace be inside your walls, and wealth in your noble houses.
I noho ka maluhia iloko o kou mau pa, A me ka pomaikai iloko o kou halealii.
8 Because of my brothers and friends, I will now say, Let peace be with you.
No ko'u poe hoahanau, a no ko'u poe makamaka, E olelo aku no wau, ano la, i maluhia maloko ou.
9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will be working for your good.
No ka hale o Iehova, o ko kakou Akua, E imi aku no wau, i ka pono nou.
