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.

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

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

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

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

Jeruzalem je zgrajen kakor mesto, ki je stisnjeno skupaj,

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.

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

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

Kajti tam so postavljeni sodni prestoli, prestoli Davidove hiše.

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

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

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

Mir bodi znotraj tvojih zidov in uspevanje v tvojih palačah.

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

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

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

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