Psalm 122
New King James Version
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.”
2 Our feet have been standing
Within your gates, O Jerusalem!
3 Jerusalem is built
As a city that is (B)compact together,
4 (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.
5 (E)For thrones are set there for judgment,
The thrones of the house of David.
6 (F)Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
“May they prosper who love you.
7 Peace be within your walls,
Prosperity within your palaces.”
8 For the sake of my brethren and companions,
I will now say, “Peace be within you.”
9 Because of the house of the Lord our God
I will (G)seek your good.

Endagaano Enkadde nʼEndagaano Empya
Oluyimba nga balinnya amadaala. Lwa Dawudi.
122 Nasanyuka bwe baŋŋamba nti,
“Tugende mu nnyumba ya Mukama!”
2 Ebigere byaffe biyimiridde
mu miryango gyo, Ayi Yerusaalemi.
3 Yerusaalemi yazimbibwa okuba
ekibuga ekinywevu ekiyimiridde awamu.
4 Eyo ebika byonna gye biraga,
ebika bya Mukama,
okutendereza erinnya lya Mukama
ng’ebiragiro ebyaweebwa Isirayiri bwe biri.
5 Eyo entebe ez’okusalirako emisango gye zaateekebwa;
z’entebe ez’obwakabaka ez’ennyumba ya Dawudi.

“Abo abakwagala bafune ebirungi.
7 Emirembe gibeerenga munda w’ebisenge byo;
n’amayumba go amanene gabeerenga n’omukisa era nga manywevu.”
8 Olwa baganda bange ne mikwano gyange
nnaayogeranga nti, “Emirembe gibeerenga mu ggwe.”
9 (B)Olw’obulungi bw’ennyumba ya Mukama Katonda waffe, nnaanoonyanga okukulaakulana kwa Yerusaalemi.
