Psalms 122

1 [A Song of Ascents. By David.] I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to the LORD's house."

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

2 Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;

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

3 Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is joined together;

Jeruzalem je zgrajen kakor mesto, ki je stisnjeno skupaj,

4 where the tribes go up, even the tribes of the LORD, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to 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, the thrones of David's house.

Kajti tam so postavljeni sodni prestoli, prestoli Davidove hiše.

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

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

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

Mir bodi znotraj tvojih zidov in uspevanje v tvojih palačah.

8 For my brothers' and companions' sakes, I will now say, "Peace be within you."

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

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

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