< Psalms 122 >

1 A Canticle in steps. I rejoiced in the things that were said to me: “We shall go into the house of the Lord.”
Alegrei-me quando me disseram: Vamos á casa do Senhor.
2 Our feet were standing in your courts, O Jerusalem.
Os nossos pés estão dentro das tuas portas, ó Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem has been built as a city, whose participation is unto itself.
Jerusalem está edificada como uma cidade que é compacta,
4 For to that place, the tribes ascended, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to confess to the name of the Lord.
Onde sobem as tribus, as tribus do Senhor, até o testemunho d'Israel, para darem graças ao nome do Senhor.
5 For in that place, seats have sat down in judgment, seats above the house of David.
Pois ali estão os thronos do juizo, os thronos da casa de David.
6 Petition for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem, and for abundance for those who love you.
Orae pela paz de Jerusalem: prosperarão aquelles que te amam.
7 Let peace be in your virtue, and abundance in your towers.
Haja paz dentro de teus muros, e prosperidade dentro dos teus palacios.
8 For the sake of my brothers and my neighbors, I spoke peace about you.
Por causa dos meus irmãos e amigos, direi: Paz esteja em ti.
9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I sought good things for you.
Por causa da casa do Senhor, nosso Deus, buscarei o teu bem.
