Psalm 122

Neue evangelistische Übersetzung

von Karl-Heinz Vanheiden
1 Ein Lied für den Aufstieg zum Tempel. Von David. Ich freute mich, als sie zu mir sagten: / „Zum Haus Jahwes wollen wir gehen!“2 Unsere Füße standen dann in deinen Toren, Jerusalem.3 Jerusalem, du bist gebaut als eine fest in sich geschlossene Stadt.4 Zu dir ziehen die Stämme hinauf, die Stämme Jahwes. Denn es ist Israel verordnet, / dort den Namen Jahwes zu preisen.5 Dort sind auch die Sitze des obersten Gerichts, / die Throne für Davids Königshaus.6 Erbittet Frieden für Jerusalem! / Gut soll es allen gehen, die dich lieben.7 Frieden wohne in deinen Mauern, / in deinen Häusern Geborgenheit.8 Wegen meiner Brüder und Freunde sage ich: / „Friede sei mit dir!“9 Weil das Haus unseres Gottes, Jahwe, in dir steht, / suche ich das Beste für dich, Jerusalem.

Psalm 122

New International Reader’s Version

von Biblica
1 I was very glad when they said to me, ‘Let us go up to the house of the LORD.’2 Jerusalem, our feet are standing inside your gates.3 Jerusalem is built like a city where everything is close together.4 The tribes of the LORD go there to praise his name. They do it in keeping with the law he gave to Israel.5 The thrones of the family line of David are there. That’s where the people are judged.6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Say, ‘May those who love you be secure.7 May there be peace inside your walls. May your people be kept safe.’8 I’m concerned for my family and friends. So I say to Jerusalem, ‘May you enjoy peace.’9 I’m concerned about the house of the LORD our God. So I pray that things will go well with Jerusalem.

1 A Song of Ascents. Of David. I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord!” (Ps 120,1; Jes 2,3; Mi 4,2; Sach 8,21)2 Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!3 Jerusalem—built as a city that is bound firmly together, (Neh 4,6; Ps 147,2)4 to which the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, as was decreed for[1] Israel, to give thanks to the name of the Lord. (5Mo 16,16; Ps 78,5)5 There thrones for judgment were set, the thrones of the house of David. (5Mo 17,8; 2Sam 15,2; 1Kön 3,16; 1Kön 7,7; 2Chr 19,8)6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! “May they be secure who love you! (Ps 51,18; Jer 29,7)7 Peace be within your walls and security within your towers!” (Ps 48,13)8 For my brothers and companions’ sake I will say, “Peace be within you!” (1Sam 25,6; Ps 85,8)9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek your good. (Neh 2,10; Est 10,3)
