Psalms 122

1 A Song of Degrees. I was glad when they said to me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.

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

2 Our feet stood in thy courts, O Jerusalem.

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

3 Jerusalem is built as a city whose fellowship is complete.

Jeruzalem je zgrajen kakor mesto, ki je stisnjeno skupaj,

4 For thither the tribes went up, the tribes of the Lord, as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the Lord.

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

5 For there are set thrones for judgment, [even] thrones for the house of David.

Kajti tam so postavljeni sodni prestoli, prestoli Davidove hiše.

6 Pray now for the peace of Jerusalem: and [let there be] prosperity to them that love thee.

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

7 Let peace, I pray, be within thine host, and prosperity in thy palaces.

Mir bodi znotraj tvojih zidov in uspevanje v tvojih palačah.

8 For the sake of my brethren and my neighbours, I have indeed spoken peace concerning thee.

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

9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, I have diligently sought thy good.

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