Psalms 122

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

Wer ma ji wero kadhi e hekalu. Mar Daudi. Ne amor gi joma nowachona niya, “Wadhiuru e od Jehova Nyasaye.”

2 Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;

Tiendewa ochungʼ e dhorangeyeni, yaye Jerusalem.

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

Jerusalem oger ka dala ma ji odakie machiegni motenore.

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

Kanyo e kama ogendini idho dhiye, ogendini mag Jehova Nyasaye dhi kuno, mondo opak nying Jehova Nyasaye ka giluwo chike mane omi Israel.

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

Kanyo ema kombe loch mag ngʼado bura nitie gin kombe loch mag jood Daudi.

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

Lamuru mondo Jerusalem obed gi kwe. Lamuru niya, “Mad joma oheri bed gi kwe.

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

Mad kwe yudre ei alworani, adier kwe mondo obedi ei ohinga mochieli.”

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

Nikech owetena gi osiepena modak e iyi, awacho niya, “Jerusalem mondo obed gi kwe.”

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

Nikech wach od Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa, adwaro ni idhi maber.
