Psalms 122

1 A Song of Degrees. I was glad when they said to me, Let us go into 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 stood in your courts, O Jerusalem.

Yaa Yerusaalem, miilli keenya karrawwan kee irra dhaabata.

3 Jerusalem is built as a city whose fellowship is complete.

Yerusaalem akka magaalaa walitti maxxantee gobbatte tokkootti ijaaramte.

4 For there the tribes went up, the tribes of the Lord, as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to 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 are set thrones for judgment, [even] thrones for the house of David.

Teessoowwan murtii, teessoowwan mana Daawit achi dhaabatu.

6 Pray now for the peace of Jerusalem: and [let there be] prosperity to them that love you.

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

7 Let peace, I pray, be within your host, and prosperity in your palaces.

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

8 For the sake of my brethren and my neighbors, I have indeed spoken peace concerning you.

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

9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, I have diligently sought your good.

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