Psalms 122

1 I WAS glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.

Oluyimba nga balinnya amadaala. Lwa Dawudi. Nasanyuka bwe baŋŋamba nti, “Tugende mu nnyumba ya Mukama!”

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

Ebigere byaffe biyimiridde mu miryango gyo, Ayi Yerusaalemi.

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

Yerusaalemi yazimbibwa okuba ekibuga ekinywevu ekiyimiridde awamu.

4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the Lord.

Eyo ebika byonna gye biraga, ebika bya Mukama, okutendereza erinnya lya Mukama ng’ebiragiro ebyaweebwa Isirayiri bwe biri.

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

Eyo entebe ez’okusalirako emisango gye zaateekebwa; z’entebe ez’obwakabaka ez’ennyumba ya Dawudi.

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

Musabirenga Yerusaalemi emirembe: “Abo abakwagala bafune ebirungi.

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

Emirembe gibeerenga munda w’ebisenge byo; n’amayumba go amanene gabeerenga n’omukisa era nga manywevu.”

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

Olwa baganda bange ne mikwano gyange nnaayogeranga nti, “Emirembe gibeerenga mu ggwe.”

9 Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek thy good.

Olw’obulungi bw’ennyumba ya Mukama Katonda waffe, nnaanoonyanga okukulaakulana kwa Yerusaalemi.
