Psalms 122

1 [A Song of Ascents. By David.] I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to Jehovah's house."

Bil sem vesel, ko so mi rekli: »Pojdimo v Gospodovo hišo.«

2 Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;

Naša stopala bodo stala znotraj tvojih velikih vrat, oh Jeruzalem.

3 Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is joined together;

Jeruzalem je zgrajen kakor mesto, ki je stisnjeno skupaj,

4 where the tribes go up, even the tribes of JAH, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the name of Jehovah.

kamor se vzpenjajo rodovi, Gospodovi rodovi, v pričevanje Izraelu, da dajejo zahvalo Gospodovemu imenu.

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

Kajti tam so postavljeni sodni prestoli, prestoli Davidove hiše.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.

Mólite za mir v Jeruzalemu. Tisti, ki te ljubijo, bodo uspevali.

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

Mir bodi znotraj tvojih zidov in uspevanje v tvojih palačah.

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

Zaradi mojih bratov in zaradi družabnikov bom torej rekel: »Mir bodi znotraj tebe.«

9 For the sake of the house of Jehovah our God, I will seek your good.

Zaradi hiše Gospoda, našega Boga, bom iskal tvoje dobro.
