Psalms 122

1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY DAVID. I have rejoiced in those saying to me, “We go to the house of YHWH.”

canticum graduum huic David laetatus sum in his quae dicta sunt mihi in domum Domini ibimus

2 Our feet have been standing in your gates, O Jerusalem!

stantes erant pedes nostri in atriis tuis Hierusalem

3 Jerusalem—the built one—[Is] as a city that is joined to itself together.

Hierusalem quae aedificatur ut civitas cuius participatio eius in id ipsum

4 For there tribes have gone up, Tribes of YAH, companies of Israel, To give thanks to the Name of YHWH.

illic enim ascenderunt tribus tribus Domini testimonium Israhel ad confitendum nomini Domini

5 For there thrones of judgment have sat, Thrones of the house of David.

quia illic sederunt sedes in iudicium sedes super domum David

6 Ask [for] the peace of Jerusalem, Those loving you are at rest.

rogate quae ad pacem sunt Hierusalem et abundantia diligentibus te

7 Peace is in your bulwark, rest in your high places,

fiat pax in virtute tua et abundantia in turribus tuis

8 For the sake of my brothers and my companions, Please let me speak, “Peace [be] in you.”

propter fratres meos et proximos meos loquebar pacem de te

9 For the sake of the house of our God YHWH, I seek good for you!

propter domum Domini Dei nostri quaesivi bona tibi
