Psalmi 122

1 Bil sem vesel, ko so mi rekli: »Pojdimo v Gospodovo hišo.«

A Song of Ascents. David’s. I was glad, when they were saying unto me, Unto the house of Yahweh, let us go!

2 Naša stopala bodo stala znotraj tvojih velikih vrat, oh Jeruzalem.

Standing are our feet, within thy gates, O Jerusalem!

3 Jeruzalem je zgrajen kakor mesto, ki je stisnjeno skupaj,

Jerusalem! that hath been builded, A true city, all joined together as one:

4 kamor se vzpenjajo rodovi, Gospodovi rodovi, v pričevanje Izraelu, da dajejo zahvalo Gospodovemu imenu.

Whither have come up the tribes, The tribes of Yah, A testimony to Israel, To give thanks unto the Name of Yahweh:

5 Kajti tam so postavljeni sodni prestoli, prestoli Davidove hiše.

For there are set—Thrones for justice, Thrones for the house David.

6 Mólite za mir v Jeruzalemu. Tisti, ki te ljubijo, bodo uspevali.

Ask ye for the peace of Jerusalem, They shall prosper, who love thee!

7 Mir bodi znotraj tvojih zidov in uspevanje v tvojih palačah.

Peace be within thy walls, prosperity within thy palaces:

8 Zaradi mojih bratov in zaradi družabnikov bom torej rekel: »Mir bodi znotraj tebe.«

For the sake of my brethren and friends, Oh, might I speak [saying], Peace be within thee!

9 Zaradi hiše Gospoda, našega Boga, bom iskal tvoje dobro.

For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, will I seek blessing for thee.
