Psalms 122

1 A Song of Ascents. David’s. I was glad, when they were saying unto me, Unto the house of Yahweh, let us go!

大衛上行之詩。 人對我說：我們往耶和華的殿去， 我就歡喜。

2 Standing are our feet, within thy gates, O Jerusalem!

耶路撒冷啊， 我們的腳站在你的門內。

3 Jerusalem! that hath been builded, A true city, all joined together as one:

耶路撒冷被建造， 如同連絡整齊的一座城。

4 Whither have come up the tribes, The tribes of Yah, A testimony to Israel, To give thanks unto the Name of Yahweh:

眾支派，就是耶和華的支派，上那裏去， 按以色列的常例稱讚耶和華的名。

5 For there are set—Thrones for justice, Thrones for the house David.

因為在那裏設立審判的寶座， 就是大衛家的寶座。

6 Ask ye for the peace of Jerusalem, They shall prosper, who love thee!

你們要為耶路撒冷求平安！ 耶路撒冷啊，愛你的人必然興旺！

7 Peace be within thy walls, prosperity within thy palaces:

願你城中平安！ 願你宮內興旺！

8 For the sake of my brethren and friends, Oh, might I speak [saying], Peace be within thee!

因我弟兄和同伴的緣故，我要說： 願平安在你中間！

9 For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, will I seek blessing for thee.

因耶和華－我們上帝殿的緣故， 我要為你求福！
