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)

Panalangin para sa katiwasayan ng Jerusalem. Awit sa mga Pagsampa; ni David.

122 Ako'y natutuwa nang kanilang sabihin sa akin,
Tayo'y magsiparoon (A)sa bahay ng Panginoon.
Ang mga paa natin ay nagsisitayo
Sa loob ng iyong mga pintuang-bayan, Oh Jerusalem;
Jerusalem, na natayo
Na parang bayang (B)siksikan:
(C)Na inaahon ng mga lipi, sa makatuwid baga'y ng mga lipi ng Panginoon,
(D)Na pinaka patotoo sa Israel,
Upang magpasalamat sa pangalan ng Panginoon.
(E)Sapagka't doo'y nalagay ang mga luklukan na ukol sa kahatulan,
Ang mga luklukan ng sangbahayan ni David.
(F)Idalangin ninyo ang kapayapaan ng Jerusalem:
Sila'y magsisiginhawa na nagsisiibig sa iyo.
Kapayapaan nawa ang sumaloob ng inyong mga kuta,
At kaginhawahan sa loob ng iyong mga palasio.
Dahil sa aking mga kapatid at aking mga kasama,
Aking sasabihin ngayon,
(G)Kapayapaan ang sumaiyong loob.
Dahil sa bahay ng Panginoon nating Dios.
(H)Hahanapin ko ang iyong buti.

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.
