< Psalms 122 >

1 [A Song of Ascents. By David.] I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to YHWH's house."
Thaburi ya Daudi Nĩndakenire hamwe na arĩa maanjĩĩrire atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũthiĩ nyũmba ya Jehova.”
2 Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;
Magũrũ maitũ marũgamĩte ihingo-inĩ ciaku, wee Jerusalemu.
3 Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is joined together;
Jerusalemu rĩakĩtwo ta itũũra inene rĩnyitithanĩtio wega.
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.
Kũu nĩkuo mĩhĩrĩga yambataga, o yo mĩhĩrĩga ya Jehova, ĩgathiĩ kũgooca rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova kũringana na mawatho marĩa aheete Isiraeli.
5 For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David's house.
Kũu nĩkuo kũigĩtwo itĩ cia ũnene cia atuanĩri ciira, o cio itĩ cia ũnene cia nyũmba ya Daudi.
6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.
Hoerai Jerusalemu thayũ: “Arĩa makwendete marotũũra na thayũ.
7 Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces.
Kũrĩa thingo ciaku ciirigĩire kũrogĩa na thayũ, naguo ũgitĩri ũgĩe ciikaro-inĩ ciaku cia ũthamaki.”
8 For my brothers' and companions' sakes, I will now say, "Peace be within you."
Nĩ ũndũ wa ariũ a baba na arata, nguuga atĩrĩ, “Thayũ ũrogĩa thĩinĩ waku.”
9 For the sake of the house of YHWH our God, I will seek your good.
Nĩ ũndũ wa nyũmba ya Jehova Ngai witũ, caragia ũgaacĩru waku.
