為耶路撒冷禱告

大衛上聖殿朝聖之詩。

122 人們對我說:
「讓我們去耶和華的殿吧!」
我感到歡喜。
耶路撒冷啊,
我們踏進你的城門了。
耶路撒冷是一座整齊堅固的城。
以色列各支派,耶和華的子民,
都遵照祂賜的法度去那裡稱謝祂。
那裡有審判的王座,
就是大衛家的王座。
要為耶路撒冷的和平禱告,
願愛這城的人亨通。
耶路撒冷啊!
願你城內有平安,
你的宮裡有安寧,
為了我的親人和朋友,
我要祈求平安臨到你。
為了我們的上帝耶和華的殿,
我要為你求福祉。

為耶路撒冷祈求平安

大衛朝聖之歌(原文作“往上行之歌”)。

122 人對我說:“我們到耶和華的殿那裡去”,

我就歡喜。(本節在《馬索拉文本》包括細字標題)

耶路撒冷啊!

我們的腳正站在你的門內。

耶路撒冷被建造,

好像一座結構完整的城巿。

眾支派,就是耶和華的支派,

都上那裡去;

照著以色列的定例,

稱頌耶和華的名。

因為在那裡設有審判的寶座,

就是大衛家的寶座。

你們要為耶路撒冷求平安,說:

“耶路撒冷啊!願愛你的人都亨通。

願你的城牆內有平安,

願你的宮殿中有安穩。”

為了我的兄弟和朋友的緣故,

我要說:“願你中間有平安。”

為了耶和華我們 神的殿的緣故,

我要為你求福樂。

122 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.

Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:

Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the Lord.

For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.

Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek thy good.

The Joy of Going to the House of the Lord

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

122 I was glad when they said to me,
(A)“Let us go into the house of the Lord.”
Our feet have been standing
Within your gates, O Jerusalem!

Jerusalem is built
As a city that is (B)compact together,
(C)Where the tribes go up,
The tribes of the Lord,
[a]To (D)the Testimony of Israel,
To give thanks to the name of the Lord.
(E)For thrones are set there for judgment,
The thrones of the house of David.

(F)Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
“May they prosper who love you.
Peace be within your walls,
Prosperity within your palaces.”
For the sake of my brethren and companions,
I will now say, “Peace be within you.”
Because of the house of the Lord our God
I will (G)seek your good.

  1. Psalm 122:4 Or As a testimony to

Psalm 122

A song of ascents. Of David.

I rejoiced with those who said to me,
    “Let us go to the house of the Lord.”
Our feet are standing
    in your gates, Jerusalem.

Jerusalem is built like a city
    that is closely compacted together.
That is where the tribes go up—
    the tribes of the Lord
to praise the name of the Lord
    according to the statute given to Israel.
There stand the thrones for judgment,
    the thrones of the house of David.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
    “May those who love(A) you be secure.
May there be peace(B) within your walls
    and security within your citadels.(C)
For the sake of my family and friends,
    I will say, “Peace be within you.”
For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,
    I will seek your prosperity.(D)
