Psalm 122
A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord. A psalm of David.
1I was very glad when they said to me,
“Let us go up to the house of the Lord.”
2Jerusalem, our feet are standing
inside your gates.
3Jerusalem is built like a city
where everything is close together.
4The tribes of the Lord go there to praise his name.
They do it in keeping with the law he gave to Israel.
5The thrones of the family line of David are there.
That’s where the people are judged.
6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Say,
“May those who love you be secure.
7May there be peace inside your walls.
May your people be kept safe.”
8I’m concerned for my family and friends.
So I say to Jerusalem, “May you enjoy peace.”
9I’m concerned about the house of the Lord our God.
So I pray that things will go well with Jerusalem.
Zabbuli 122
Oluyimba nga balinnya amadaala. Lwa Dawudi.
1Nasanyuka bwe baŋŋamba nti,
“Tugende mu nnyumba ya Mukama!”
2Ebigere byaffe biyimiridde
mu miryango gyo, Ayi Yerusaalemi.
3Yerusaalemi yazimbibwa okuba
ekibuga ekinywevu ekiyimiridde awamu.
4Eyo ebika byonna gye biraga,
ebika bya Mukama,
okutendereza erinnya lya Mukama
ng’ebiragiro ebyaweebwa Isirayiri bwe biri.
5Eyo entebe ez’okusalirako emisango gye zaateekebwa;
z’entebe ez’obwakabaka ez’ennyumba ya Dawudi.
6122:6 Zab 51:18Musabirenga Yerusaalemi emirembe:
“Abo abakwagala bafune ebirungi.
7Emirembe gibeerenga munda w’ebisenge byo;
n’amayumba go amanene gabeerenga n’omukisa era nga manywevu.”
8Olwa baganda bange ne mikwano gyange
nnaayogeranga nti, “Emirembe gibeerenga mu ggwe.”
9122:9 Nek 2:10Olw’obulungi bw’ennyumba ya Mukama Katonda waffe, nnaanoonyanga okukulaakulana kwa Yerusaalemi.
