Psalms 122

1 I rejoiced at the things that were said to me: We shall go into the house of the Lord.

١ تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ. لِدَاوُدَ فَرِحْتُ بِٱلْقَائِلِينَ لِي: «إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ نَذْهَبُ».

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

٢ تَقِفُ أَرْجُلُنَا فِي أَبْوَابِكِ يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ.

3 Jerusalem, which is built as a city, which is compact together.

٣ أُورُشَلِيمُ ٱلْمَبْنِيَّةُ كَمَدِينَةٍ مُتَّصِلَةٍ كُلِّهَا،

4 For thither did the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to praise the name of the Lord.

٤ حَيْثُ صَعِدَتِ ٱلْأَسْبَاطُ - أَسْبَاطُ ٱلرَّبِّ، شَهَادَةً لِإِسْرَائِيلَ- لِيَحْمَدُوا ٱسْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ.

5 Because their seats have sat in judgment, seats upon the house of David.

٥ لِأَنَّهُ هُنَاكَ ٱسْتَوَتِ ٱلْكَرَاسِيُّ لِلْقَضَاءِ، كَرَاسِيُّ بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ.

6 Pray ye for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem: and abundance for them that love thee.

٦ ٱسْأَلُوا سَلَامَةَ أُورُشَلِيمَ: «لِيَسْتَرِحْ مُحِبُّوكِ.

7 Let peace be in thy strength: and abundance in thy towers.

٧ لِيَكُنْ سَلَامٌ فِي أَبْرَاجِكِ، رَاحَةٌ فِي قُصُورِكِ».

8 For the sake of my brethren, and of my neighbours, I spoke peace of thee.

٨ مِنْ أَجْلِ إِخْوَتِي وَأَصْحَابِي لَأَقُولَنَّ: «سَلَامٌ بِكِ».

9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, I have sought good things for thee.

٩ مِنْ أَجْلِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا أَلْتَمِسُ لَكِ خَيْرًا.
