诗篇 122
1 (大卫上行之诗。)人对我说,我们往耶和华的殿去,我就欢喜。
A song of ascents. Of David. I rejoiced with those who said to me, "Let us go to the house of the LORD."
2 耶路撒冷阿,我们的脚站在你的门内。
Our feet are standing in your gates, O Jerusalem.
3 耶路撒冷被建造,如同连络整齐的一座城。
Jerusalem is built like a city that is closely compacted together.
4 众支派,就是耶和华的支派,上那里去,按以色列的常例(或作作以色列的证据)称赞耶和华的名。
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.
5 因为在那里设立审判的宝座,就是大卫家的宝座。
There the thrones for judgment stand, the thrones of the house of David.
6 你们要为耶路撒冷求平安。耶路撒冷阿,爱你的人必然兴旺。
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: "May those who love you be secure.
7 愿你城中平安,愿你宫内兴旺。
May there be peace within your walls and security within your citadels."
8 因我弟兄和同伴的缘故,我要说,愿平安在你中间。
For the sake of my brothers and friends, I will say, "Peace be within you."
9 因耶和华我们神殿的缘故,我要为你求福。
For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your prosperity.
