< Mazmur 122 >
1 Nyanyian ziarah Daud. Aku bersukacita, ketika dikatakan orang kepadaku: "Mari kita pergi ke rumah TUHAN."
A Canticle in steps. I rejoiced in the things that were said to me: “We shall go into the house of the Lord.”
2 Sekarang kaki kami berdiri di pintu gerbangmu, hai Yerusalem.
Our feet were standing in your courts, O Jerusalem.
3 Hai Yerusalem, yang telah didirikan sebagai kota yang bersambung rapat,
Jerusalem has been built as a city, whose participation is unto itself.
4 ke mana suku-suku berziarah, yakni suku-suku TUHAN, untuk bersyukur kepada nama TUHAN sesuai dengan peraturan bagi Israel.
For to that place, the tribes ascended, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to confess to the name of the Lord.
5 Sebab di sanalah ditaruh kursi-kursi pengadilan, kursi-kursi milik keluarga raja Daud.
For in that place, seats have sat down in judgment, seats above the house of David.
6 Berdoalah untuk kesejahteraan Yerusalem: "Biarlah orang-orang yang mencintaimu mendapat sentosa.
Petition for the things that are for the peace of Jerusalem, and for abundance for those who love you.
7 Biarlah kesejahteraan ada di lingkungan tembokmu, dan sentosa di dalam purimu!"
Let peace be in your virtue, and abundance in your towers.
8 Oleh karena saudara-saudaraku dan teman-temanku aku hendak mengucapkan: "Semoga kesejahteraan ada di dalammu!"
For the sake of my brothers and my neighbors, I spoke peace about you.
9 Oleh karena rumah TUHAN, Allah kita, aku hendak mencari kebaikan bagimu.
For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I sought good things for you.
