Psalms 122

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

Wimbo wa kwenda juu. Wa Daudi. Nilishangilia pamoja na wale walioniambia, “Twende nyumbani ya Bwana.”

2 Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;

Ee Yerusalemu, miguu yetu imesimama malangoni mwako.

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

Yerusalemu imejengwa vyema kama mji ambao umeshikamanishwa pamoja.

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.

Huko ndiko makabila hukwea, makabila ya Bwana, kulisifu jina la Bwana kulingana na maagizo waliopewa Israeli.

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

Huko viti vya enzi vya hukumu hukaa, viti vya enzi vya nyumba ya Daudi.

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

Omba kwa ajili ya amani ya Yerusalemu: “Wote wakupendao na wawe salama.

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

Amani na iwepo ndani ya kuta zako na usalama ndani ya ngome zako.”

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

Kwa ajili ya ndugu zangu na marafiki, nitasema, “Amani iwe ndani yako.”

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

Kwa ajili ya nyumba ya Bwana Mungu wetu, nitatafuta mafanikio yako.
