Psalms 122

1 I was glad/happy when people said to me, “We should go to the temple of Yahweh [in Jerusalem]!”

Waƙar haurawa. Ta Dawuda. Na yi farin ciki tare da waɗanda suka ce da ni, “Bari mu tafi gidan Ubangiji.”

2 And now we are here, standing inside the gates/city of [APO] Jerusalem.

Ƙafafunmu suna tsaye a ƙofofinki, ya Urushalima.

3 Jerusalem is a city that has been rebuilt, with the result that people can gather together in it.

An gina Urushalima kamar birnin da aka yi a harhaɗe wuri guda.

4 We [people of the] tribes of Israel who belong to Yahweh can now go up there as Yahweh commanded that we should do, and we can thank him.

A can ne kabilu suke haurawa, kabilan Ubangiji, don su yabi sunan Ubangiji bisa ga farillan da aka ba wa Isra’ila.

5 There the kings of Israel who were descendants of [King] David sit on their thrones and decide cases [fairly when the people have disputes].

A can kursiyoyin shari’a yake tsaye, kursiyoyin gidan Dawuda.

6 Pray that there will be peace in Jerusalem; I desire that those who love Jerusalem will (prosper/live peacefully).

Ku yi addu’a don salamar Urushalima, “Bari waɗanda suke ƙaunarki su zauna lafiya.

7 I desire that there will be peace inside the walls of the city and that [people who are] inside the palaces will be safe.

Bari salama ta kasance a katangarki zaman lafiya kuma a fadodinki.”

8 For the sake of my relatives and friends, I say, “My desire is that that inside Jerusalem [people will live] peacefully.”

Saboda’yan’uwana da kuma abokaina, zan ce, “Salama tă kasance tare da ke.”

9 And because I love the temple of Yahweh our God, I pray that things will go well for the people who live [in Jerusalem].

Saboda gidan Ubangiji Allahnmu, zan nemi wadatarki.
