< 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.'
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 have been standing in thy gates, O 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 — the builded one — [Is] as a city that is joined to itself 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 For thither have tribes gone up, Tribes of Jah, companies of Israel, To give thanks to the name of Jehovah.
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 have sat thrones of judgment, 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 Ask ye the peace of Jerusalem, At rest are those loving thee.
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 is in thy bulwark, rest in thy high places,
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 brethren and my companions, Let me speak, I pray thee, 'Peace [be] in thee.'
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 Jehovah our God, I seek good for thee!
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
