시편 122

1사람이 내게 말하기를 여호와의 집에 올라가자 할 때에 내가 기뻐하였도다 2예루살렘아 우리 발이 네 성문 안에 섰도다 3예루살렘아 너는 조밀한 성읍과 같이 건설되었도다 4지파들 곧 여호와의 이름에 감사하려고 이스라엘의 전례대로 그리로 올라가는도다 5거기 판단의 보좌를 두셨으니 곧 다윗 집의 보좌로다 6예루살렘을 위하여 평안을 구하라 예루살렘을 사랑하는 자는 형통하리로다 7네 성 안에는 평강이 있고 네 궁중에는 형통이 있을지어다 8내가 내 형제와 붕우를 위하여 이제 말하리니 네 가운데 평강이 있을지어다 9여호와 우리 하나님의 집을 위하여 내가 네 복을 구하리로다

1I was glad when they said to me, “Let’s go to Yahweh’s house!” 2Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem; 3Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is compact together; 4where the tribes go up, even Yah’s tribes, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to Yahweh’s name. 5For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David’s house. 6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper. 7Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces. 8For my brothers’ and companions’ sakes, I will now say, “Peace be within you.” 9For the sake of the house of Yahweh our God, I will seek your good.

1Een lied Hammaaloth, van David. Ik verblijd mij in degenen, die tot mij zeggen: Wij zullen in het huis des HEEREN gaan. 2Onze voeten zijn staande in uw poorten, o Jeruzalem! 3Jeruzalem is gebouwd, als een stad, die wel samengevoegd is; 4Waarheen de stammen opgaan, de stammen des HEEREN, tot de getuigenis Israels, om den Naam des HEEREN te danken. 5Want daar zijn de stoelen des gerichts gezet, de stoelen van het huis van David. 6Bidt om den vrede van Jeruzalem; wel moeten zij varen, die u beminnen. 7Vrede zij in uw vesting, welvaren in uw paleizen. 8Om mijner broederen en mijner vrienden wil, zal ik nu spreken, vrede zij in u! 9Om des huizes des HEEREN, onzes Gods wil, zal ik het goede voor u zoeken.
