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.”

Песнь восхождения. Давида. Возрадовался я, когда сказали мне: “пойдем в дом Господень”.

2 Our feet were standing in your courts, O Jerusalem.

Вот, стоят ноги наши во вратах твоих, Иерусалим,

3 Jerusalem has been built as a city, whose participation is unto itself.

Иерусалим, устроенный как город, слитый в одно,

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.

куда восходят колена, колена Господни, по закону Израилеву, славить имя Господне.

5 For in that place, seats have sat down in judgment, seats above the house of David.

Там стоят престолы суда, престолы дома Давидова.

6 Petition for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem, and for abundance for those who love you.

Просите мира Иерусалиму: да благоденствуют любящие тебя!

7 Let peace be in your virtue, and abundance in your towers.

Да будет мир в стенах твоих, благоденствие - в чертогах твоих!

8 For the sake of my brothers and my neighbors, I spoke peace about you.

Ради братьев моих и ближних моих говорю я: “мир тебе!”

9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I sought good things for you.

Ради дома Господа, Бога нашего, желаю блага тебе.
