< Psalms 122 >

1 “A song of the degrees by David.” I was rejoiced when they said unto me, Unto the house of the Lord let us go.
تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ. لِدَاوُدَ فَرِحْتُ بِٱلْقَائِلِينَ لِي: «إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ نَذْهَبُ».١
2 Our feet are now standing within thy gates, O Jerusalem!
تَقِفُ أَرْجُلُنَا فِي أَبْوَابِكِ يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ.٢
3 Jerusalem, which art built as a city wherein all associate together.
أُورُشَلِيمُ ٱلْمَبْنِيَّةُ كَمَدِينَةٍ مُتَّصِلَةٍ كُلِّهَا،٣
4 For thither go up the tribes of the Lord, as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the Lord.
حَيْثُ صَعِدَتِ ٱلْأَسْبَاطُ - أَسْبَاطُ ٱلرَّبِّ، شَهَادَةً لِإِسْرَائِيلَ- لِيَحْمَدُوا ٱسْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ.٤
5 For there are placed chairs for [giving] judgment, the chairs for the house of David.—
لِأَنَّهُ هُنَاكَ ٱسْتَوَتِ ٱلْكَرَاسِيُّ لِلْقَضَاءِ، كَرَاسِيُّ بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ.٥
6 Pray ye for the peace of Jerusalem; may those that love thee prosper.
ٱسْأَلُوا سَلَامَةَ أُورُشَلِيمَ: «لِيَسْتَرِحْ مُحِبُّوكِ.٦
7 May there be peace within thy walls, prosperity within thy palaces,
لِيَكُنْ سَلَامٌ فِي أَبْرَاجِكِ، رَاحَةٌ فِي قُصُورِكِ».٧
8 For the sake of my brethren and my friends, let me now speak, Peace be within thee.
مِنْ أَجْلِ إِخْوَتِي وَأَصْحَابِي لَأَقُولَنَّ: «سَلَامٌ بِكِ».٨
9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, will I seek thy good.
مِنْ أَجْلِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا أَلْتَمِسُ لَكِ خَيْرًا.٩
