اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 122

١ 1 تَرْنِيمَةُ ٱلْمَصَاعِدِ. لِدَاوُدَ فَرِحْتُ بِٱلْقَائِلِينَ لِي: «إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ نَذْهَبُ».

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

٢ 2 تَقِفُ أَرْجُلُنَا فِي أَبْوَابِكِ يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ.

Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem!

٣ 3 أُورُشَلِيمُ ٱلْمَبْنِيَّةُ كَمَدِينَةٍ مُتَّصِلَةٍ كُلِّهَا،

Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together,

٤ 4 حَيْثُ صَعِدَتِ ٱلْأَسْبَاطُ - أَسْبَاطُ ٱلرَّبِّ، شَهَادَةً لِإِسْرَائِيلَ- لِيَحْمَدُوا ٱسْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ.

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

٥ 5 لِأَنَّهُ هُنَاكَ ٱسْتَوَتِ ٱلْكَرَاسِيُّ لِلْقَضَاءِ، كَرَاسِيُّ بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ.

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

٦ 6 ٱسْأَلُوا سَلَامَةَ أُورُشَلِيمَ: «لِيَسْتَرِحْ مُحِبُّوكِ.

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

٧ 7 لِيَكُنْ سَلَامٌ فِي أَبْرَاجِكِ، رَاحَةٌ فِي قُصُورِكِ».

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

٨ 8 مِنْ أَجْلِ إِخْوَتِي وَأَصْحَابِي لَأَقُولَنَّ: «سَلَامٌ بِكِ».

For my brothers’ and companions’ sakes, I will now say, “Peace be within you.”

٩ 9 مِنْ أَجْلِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا أَلْتَمِسُ لَكِ خَيْرًا.

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