Psalmi 122

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

A song of ascents, of David. I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of Yahweh.”

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

Jerusalem, our feet are standing within your gates!

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

Jerusalem, built as a city carefully planned!

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

The tribes go up to Jerusalem—the tribes of Yahweh— as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to the name of Yahweh.

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

There thrones of judgment were set, thrones of the house of David.

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

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! “May those who love you have peace.

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

May there be peace within the walls that defend you, and may they have peace within your fortresses.”

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

For the sake of my brothers and my friends I will say, “May there be peace within you.”

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

For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek good for you.
