Psalms 122

1 A Song of Ascents. David’s. I was glad, when they were saying unto me, Unto the house of Yahweh, let us go!

Faarfannaa Ol baʼuu. Faarfannaa Daawit. Yommuu isaan, “Kottu gara mana Waaqayyoo dhaqnaa” naan jedhanitti, ani nan gammade.

2 Standing are our feet, within thy gates, O Jerusalem!

Yaa Yerusaalem, miilli keenya karrawwan kee irra dhaabata.

3 Jerusalem! that hath been builded, A true city, all joined together as one:

Yerusaalem akka magaalaa walitti maxxantee gobbatte tokkootti ijaaramte.

4 Whither have come up the tribes, The tribes of Yah, A testimony to Israel, To give thanks unto the Name of Yahweh:

Kunis iddoo gosoonni, gosoonni Waaqayyo, akka sirna Israaʼeliif kenname sanaatti, maqaa Waaqayyoo galateeffachuuf itti ol baʼanii dha.

5 For there are set—Thrones for justice, Thrones for the house David.

Teessoowwan murtii, teessoowwan mana Daawit achi dhaabatu.

6 Ask ye for the peace of Jerusalem, They shall prosper, who love thee!

Akkana jedhaa nagaa Yerusaalemiif kadhadhaa: “Warri si jaallatan nagaan haa jiraatan.

7 Peace be within thy walls, prosperity within thy palaces:

Dallaa kee keessa nagaan, masaraa mootummaa keetii keessa immoo tasgabbiin haa jiraatu.”

8 For the sake of my brethren and friends, Oh, might I speak [saying], Peace be within thee!

Ani obboloota kootii fi michoota kootiif jedhee, “Nagaan si keessa haa jiraatu” nan jedha.

9 For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, will I seek blessing for thee.

Mana Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaatiif jedhee, ani akka wanni gaariin siif taʼu nan hawwa.
