Zaburi 122

1 Wimbo wa kwenda juu. Wa Daudi. Nilishangilia pamoja na wale walioniambia, “Twende nyumbani ya Bwana.”

[the] song of The ascents of David I rejoiced in [those who] said to me [the] house of Yahweh let us go.

2 Ee Yerusalemu, miguu yetu imesimama malangoni mwako.

Standing they were feet our in gates your O Jerusalem.

3 Yerusalemu imejengwa vyema kama mji ambao umeshikamanishwa pamoja.

Jerusalem which was built like a city that was joined together to itself together.

4 Huko ndiko makabila hukwea, makabila ya Bwana, kulisifu jina la Bwana kulingana na maagizo waliopewa Israeli.

Where there they went up tribes [the] tribes of Yahweh a testimony to Israel to give thanks to [the] name of Yahweh.

5 Huko viti vya enzi vya hukumu hukaa, viti vya enzi vya nyumba ya Daudi.

For there - they sat thrones for judgment thrones of [the] house of David.

6 Omba kwa ajili ya amani ya Yerusalemu: “Wote wakupendao na wawe salama.

Ask for [the] peace of Jerusalem may they be at ease [those who] love you.

7 Amani na iwepo ndani ya kuta zako na usalama ndani ya ngome zako.”

May it be peace in rampart your ease in fortresses your.

8 Kwa ajili ya ndugu zangu na marafiki, nitasema, “Amani iwe ndani yako.”

For [the] sake of brothers my and friends my I will speak please peace [be] in you.

9 Kwa ajili ya nyumba ya Bwana Mungu wetu, nitatafuta mafanikio yako.

For [the] sake of [the] house of Yahweh God our I will seek good of you.
