Psalms 122

1 A Song of Ascents. By David. I was glad when they said to me, “Let’s go to the LORD’s house!”

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 Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem!

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 is built as a city that is compact together,

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 where the tribes go up, even the LORD’s tribes, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the LORD’s name.

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 For there are set thrones for judgement, the thrones of David’s house.

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. Those who love you will prosper.

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 Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces.

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 my brothers’ and companions’ sakes, I will now say, “Peace be 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 the LORD our God, I will seek your good.

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
