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!

Orin fún ìgòkè. Ti Dafidi. Inú mi dùn nígbà tí wọ́n wí fún mi pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí á lọ sílé Olúwa.”

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

Ẹsẹ̀ wa yóò dúró ní ẹnu ibodè rẹ, ìwọ Jerusalẹmu.

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

Jerusalẹmu, ìwọ tí a kọ́ bí ìlú tí o fi ara mọ́ra pọ̀ ṣọ̀kan.

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

Níbi tí àwọn ẹ̀yà máa ń gòkè lọ, àwọn ẹ̀yà Olúwa, ẹ̀rí fún Israẹli, láti máa dúpẹ́ fún orúkọ Olúwa.

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

Nítorí ibẹ̀ ni a gbé ìtẹ́ ìdájọ́ kalẹ̀, àwọn ìtẹ́ ilé Dafidi.

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

Gbàdúrà fún àlàáfíà Jerusalẹmu; àwọn tí ó fẹ́ ọ yóò ṣe rere.

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

Kí àlàáfíà kí ó wà nínú odi rẹ̀, àti ìre nínú ààfin rẹ̀.

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

Nítorí àwọn ọkùnrin àti àwọn ẹgbẹ́ mi èmi yóò wí nísinsin yìí pé, kí àlàáfíà kí ó wà nínú rẹ̀.

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

Nítorí ilé Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, èmi yóò máa wá ìre rẹ̀.
