< Mazmur 122 >
1 Nyanyian ziarah Daud. Aku gembira ketika orang berkata kepadaku, "Mari kita ke Rumah TUHAN!"
I rejoiced at the things that were said to me: We shall go into the house of the Lord.
2 Sekarang kami sudah tiba di gerbang kota Yerusalem.
Our feet were standing in thy courts, O Jerusalem.
3 Yerusalem yang dibangun sebagai kota tersusun rapi dan indah.
Jerusalem, which is built as a city, which is compact together.
4 Ke sinilah suku-suku bangsa datang, suku-suku bangsa pilihan TUHAN, untuk bersyukur kepada-Nya sesuai dengan perintah-Nya.
For thither did the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to praise the name of the Lord.
5 Di sinilah raja-raja keturunan Daud menghakimi rakyatnya.
Because their seats have sat in judgment, seats upon the house of David.
6 Berdoalah bagi kesejahteraan Yerusalem: "Semoga semua orang yang mencintaimu sejahtera.
Pray ye for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem: and abundance for them that love thee.
7 Semoga ada damai di dalam wilayahmu, dan ketentraman di dalam benteng-bentengmu."
Let peace be in thy strength: and abundance in thy towers.
8 Demi kaum kerabat dan sahabatku aku berkata, "Semoga engkau sejahtera!"
For the sake of my brethren, and of my neighbours, I spoke peace of thee.
9 Demi Rumah TUHAN, Allah kita, aku berdoa agar engkau bahagia.
Because of the house of the Lord our God, I have sought good things for thee.
