< Psalms 122 >
1 A Song of the Ascents, by David. I have rejoiced in those saying to me, 'To the house of Jehovah we go.'
Yon Sòm pou monte vè tanp lan. Yon Sòm David. Mwen te kontan lè yo te di mwen, “Annou ale lakay SENYÈ a.”
2 Our feet have been standing in thy gates, O Jerusalem!
Pye nou kanpe anndan pòtay ou yo, O Jérusalem!
3 Jerusalem — the builded one — [Is] as a city that is joined to itself together.
Jérusalem, ki bati kon yon vil ki kole dyanm ansanm,
4 For thither have tribes gone up, Tribes of Jah, companies of Israel, To give thanks to the name of Jehovah.
sou (sila) tribi yo konn monte, menm tribi a SENYÈ yo, yon òdonans pou Israël, pou bay remèsiman a non SENYÈ a.
5 For there have sat thrones of judgment, Thrones of the house of David.
Paske la, twòn yo te plase pou jijman, twòn lakay David yo.
6 Ask ye the peace of Jerusalem, At rest are those loving thee.
Priye pou lapè Jérusalem. (Sila) ki renmen ou yo va pwospere.
7 Peace is in thy bulwark, rest in thy high places,
Ke lapè kapab anndan miray ou yo, e pwosperite nan palè ou yo.
8 For the sake of my brethren and my companions, Let me speak, I pray thee, 'Peace [be] in thee.'
Pou koz a frè m yo ak zanmi mwen yo, m ap di koulye a, “Ke lapè anndan ou”.
9 For the sake of the house of Jehovah our God, I seek good for thee!
Pou koz a kay SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, mwen va chache byen ou.
