Psalmi 122

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

A Song of Ascents. By David. I was glad when they said to me, “Let’s go to Yahweh’s house!”

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

Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem!

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

Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together,

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

where the tribes go up, even Yah’s tribes, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to Yahweh’s name.

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

For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David’s house.

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

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.

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

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

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

For my brothers’ and companions’ sakes, I will now say, “Peace be 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 your good.
