Psalms 122

1 A Song of Ascents; of David. I rejoiced when they said unto me: 'Let us go unto the house of the LORD.'

Faarfannaa Ol baʼuu. Faarfannaa Daawit. Yommuu isaan, “Kottu gara mana Waaqayyoo dhaqnaa” naan jedhanitti, ani nan gammade.

2 Our feet are standing within thy gates, O Jerusalem;

Yaa Yerusaalem, miilli keenya karrawwan kee irra dhaabata.

3 Jerusalem, that art builded as a city that is compact together;

Yerusaalem akka magaalaa walitti maxxantee gobbatte tokkootti ijaaramte.

4 Whither the tribes went up, even the tribes of the LORD, as a testimony unto Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

Kunis iddoo gosoonni, gosoonni Waaqayyo, akka sirna Israaʼeliif kenname sanaatti, maqaa Waaqayyoo galateeffachuuf itti ol baʼanii dha.

5 For there were set thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

Teessoowwan murtii, teessoowwan mana Daawit achi dhaabatu.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem; may they prosper that love thee.

Akkana jedhaa nagaa Yerusaalemiif kadhadhaa: “Warri si jaallatan nagaan haa jiraatan.

7 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

Dallaa kee keessa nagaan, masaraa mootummaa keetii keessa immoo tasgabbiin haa jiraatu.”

8 For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say: 'Peace be within thee.'

Ani obboloota kootii fi michoota kootiif jedhee, “Nagaan si keessa haa jiraatu” nan jedha.

9 For the sake of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.

Mana Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaatiif jedhee, ani akka wanni gaariin siif taʼu nan hawwa.
