Psalm 122

New International Version

A song of ascents. Of David.

1 I rejoiced with those who said to me, ‘Let us go to the house of the Lord.’ 2 Our feet are standing in your gates, Jerusalem. 3 Jerusalem is built like a city that is closely compacted together. 4 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 There stand the thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David. 6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: ‘May those who love you be secure. 7 May there be peace within your walls and security within your citadels.’ 8 For the sake of my family and friends, I will say, ‘Peace be within you.’ 9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek your prosperity.

1 Ein Wallfahrtslied. Von David. Ich freue mich an denen, die zu mir sagen: Lasst uns zum Haus des HERRN gehen! (Ps 42:5; Isa 2:2; Mic 4:2) 2 Nun stehen unsere Füße in deinen Toren, Jerusalem! (Ps 87:2; Ps 100:4) 3 Jerusalem, du bist gebaut als eine fest gefügte Stadt, (Ne 3:1; Ps 51:20) 4 wohin die Stämme hinaufziehen, die Stämme des HERRN — ein Zeugnis für Israel —, um zu preisen den Namen des HERRN!
