< Mazmur 122 >
1 Nyanyian ziarah Daud. Aku gembira ketika orang berkata kepadaku, "Mari kita ke Rumah TUHAN!"
A Song of Ascents. By David. I was glad when they said to me, “Let’s go to the LORD’s house!”
2 Sekarang kami sudah tiba di gerbang kota Yerusalem.
Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem!
3 Yerusalem yang dibangun sebagai kota tersusun rapi dan indah.
Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together,
4 Ke sinilah suku-suku bangsa datang, suku-suku bangsa pilihan TUHAN, untuk bersyukur kepada-Nya sesuai dengan perintah-Nya.
where the tribes go up, even the LORD’s tribes, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the LORD’s name.
5 Di sinilah raja-raja keturunan Daud menghakimi rakyatnya.
For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David’s house.
6 Berdoalah bagi kesejahteraan Yerusalem: "Semoga semua orang yang mencintaimu sejahtera.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.
7 Semoga ada damai di dalam wilayahmu, dan ketentraman di dalam benteng-bentengmu."
Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces.
8 Demi kaum kerabat dan sahabatku aku berkata, "Semoga engkau sejahtera!"
For my brothers’ and companions’ sakes, I will now say, “Peace be within you.”
9 Demi Rumah TUHAN, Allah kita, aku berdoa agar engkau bahagia.
For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.
