Salamo 122

1 Fihirana fiakarana. Nataon’ i Davida.

A Song of Ascents; of David. I rejoiced when they said unto me: 'Let us go unto the house of the LORD.'

2 Ny tongotray efa mijoro Eo anatin’ ny vavahadinao, ry Jerosalema ô,

Our feet are standing within thy gates, O Jerusalem;

3 Dia ianao ry Jerosalema, izay efa vita Tahaka ny tanàna efa voalamina tsara;

Jerusalem, that art builded as a city that is compact together;

4 Any no iakaran’ ny firenena, Dia ireo firenen’ i Jehovah (Lalàna amin’ ny Isiraely izany). Mba hisaotra ny anaran’ i Jehovah.

Whither the tribes went up, even the tribes of the LORD, as a testimony unto Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

5 Fa any no misy seza fitsarana mipetraka, Dia ny seza fiandrianan’ ny mpianakavin’ i Davida.

For there were set thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

6 Mangataha fiadanana ho an’ i Jerosalema; Hambinina anie izay tia anao;

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem; may they prosper that love thee.

7 Fiadanana anie ho ao anatin’ ny mandanao; Fanambinana anie ho ao an-dapanao

Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

8 Noho ny rahalahiko sy ny namako No hanaovako hoe Fiadanana anie ho ao anatinao.

For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say: 'Peace be within thee.'

9 Noho ny tranon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika Dia hitady izay hahatsara anao aho.

For the sake of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.
