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.'

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

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

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

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

Jeruzalem je zgrajen kakor mesto, ki je stisnjeno skupaj,

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.

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

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

Kajti tam so postavljeni sodni prestoli, prestoli Davidove hiše.

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

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

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

Mir bodi znotraj tvojih zidov in uspevanje v tvojih palačah.

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

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

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

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