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!”

Hodočasnička pjesma. Davidova. Obradovah se kad mi rekoše: “Hajdemo u Dom Jahvin!”

2 Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem!

Eto, noge nam već stoje na vratima tvojim, Jeruzaleme.

3 Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together,

Jeruzaleme, grade čvrsto sazdani i kao u jedno saliveni!

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.

Onamo uzlaze plemena, plemena Jahvina, po Zakonu Izraelovu, da slave ime Jahvino.

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

Ondje stoje sudačke stolice, stolice doma Davidova.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.

Molite za mir Jeruzalemov! Blago onima koji tebe ljube!

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

Neka bude mir u zidinama tvojim i pokoj u tvojim palačama!

8 For my brothers’ and companions’ sakes, I will now say, “Peace be within you.”

Radi braće i prijatelja svojih klicat ću: “Mir tebi!”

9 For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.

Radi Doma Jahve, Boga našega, za sreću tvoju ja ću moliti.
