Psalms 122

1 A song of ascents, of David. I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of Yahweh.”

人われにむかひて率ヱホバのいへにゆかんといへるとき我よろこべり

2 Jerusalem, our feet are standing within your gates!

ヱルサレムよわれらの足はなんぢの門のうちにたてり

3 Jerusalem, built as a city carefully planned!

ヱルサレムよなんぢは稠くつらなりたる邑のごとく固くたてり

4 The tribes go up to Jerusalem—the tribes of Yahweh— as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to the name of Yahweh.

もろもろのやから即ちヤハの支派かしこに上りきたり イスラエルにむかひて證詞をなし またヱホバの名にかんしやをなす

5 There thrones of judgment were set, thrones of the house of David.

彼處にさばきの寳座まうけらる これダビデの家のみくらなり

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! “May those who love you have peace.

ヱルサレムのために平安をいのれ ヱルサレムを愛するものは榮ゆべし

7 May there be peace within the walls that defend you, and may they have peace within your fortresses.”

ねがはくはなんぢの石垣のうちに平安あり なんぢの諸殿のうちに福祉あらんことを

8 For the sake of my brothers and my friends I will say, “May there be peace within you.”

わが兄弟のためわが侶のために われ今なんぢのなかに平安あれといはん

9 For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek good for you.

われらの神ヱホバのいへのために我なんぢの福祉をもとめん
