Psalms 122

1 I was glad when they said to me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.

Ɔsoroforo dwom. Dawid de. Me ne wɔn a wosee me sɛ, “Ma yɛnkɔ Awurade fi” no ani gyei.

2 Our feet shall stand within your gates, O Jerusalem.

Yegyinagyina wʼaponkɛse ano, Yerusalem.

3 Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together:

Wɔakyekyere Yerusalem yiye sɛ kuropɔn wahyehyɛ mu nneɛma fɛfɛ.

4 Where the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, to the testimony of Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.

Ɛhɔ na mmusuakuw no kɔ, Awurade mmusuakuw no, Wɔkɔkamfo Awurade din, sɛnea nhyehyɛe a wɔde ama Israel no te.

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

Ɛhɔ na atemmu nhengua no sisi, Dawid fi nhengua no.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love you.

Monsrɛ asomdwoe mma Yerusalem se, “Ma wɔn a wɔdɔ wo no nnya bammɔ.

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

Ma asomdwoe mmra wʼafasu mu na bammɔ mmra wʼaban mu.”

8 For my brothers and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace be within you.

Me nuanom ne me nnamfonom nti, mɛka se, “Asomdwoe ntena wo mu.”

9 Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek your good.

Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn fi nti, mɛhwehwɛ wo yiyeyɛ.
