Salmos 122

1 Yo me alegré con los que me decían: A la casa de Jehová iremos.

A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. A psalm of David. I was so happy when they said to me, “Let's go the house of the Lord.”

2 Nuestros pies estuvieron en tus puertas, o! Jerusalem.

Now we're standing inside your gates, Jerusalem!

3 Jerusalem, la que es edificada como una ciudad que está unida consigo a una.

Jerusalem is built as a city where people can be together.

4 Porque allá subieron las tribus, las tribus de Jehová, el testimonio a Israel, para alabar el nombre de Jehová.

All the tribes—the tribes of the Lord—go up there, following the command given to Israel to give thanks to the Lord.

5 Porque allá están las sillas del juicio: las sillas de la casa de David.

This is where the thrones are placed, where judgment is given, the thrones of the house of David.

6 Demandád la paz de Jerusalem: sean pacificados los que te aman.

Pray that Jerusalem may be at peace. May everyone who loves Jerusalem be kept safe.

7 Haya paz en tu antemuro, descanso en tus palacios.

May there be peace within your walls, and safety within your fortresses.

8 A causa de mis hermanos y mis compañeros hablaré ahora paz de ti.

On behalf of my family and friends, I will now say, “May you be at peace.”

9 A causa de la casa de Jehová nuestro Dios buscaré bien para ti.

On behalf of the house of the Lord our God, I pray that everything goes well for you.
