Psalm 122 | Bibelen på hverdagsdansk

Lovprisning af og bøn for Jerusalem

1 En valfartssang af David. Jeg blev så glad, da jeg hørte, at vi skulle drage til Herrens hus. 2 Nu står vi så endelig her, i porten ind til Jerusalem. 3 Jerusalem er en fantastisk by, tæt pakket med huse og mennesker.* 4 Her mødes Israels stammer, Herrens eget folk, for at takke Herren ifølge Toraens forskrifter. 5 Her står Davids trone, herfra regerer hans kongeslægt. 6 Bed om fred i Jerusalem. Må det gå godt for dem, der elsker byen. 7 Må der være fred inden for murene og tryghed i tårnene. 8 For slægt og venners skyld ønsker jeg fred over Jerusalem. 9 For Herrens helligdoms skyld beder jeg om tryghed for byen.

Let Us Go to the House of the Lord

1 A Song of Ascents. Of David. I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord!” 2 Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem! 3 Jerusalem—built as a city that is bound firmly together, 4 to which the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, as was decreed for* Israel, to give thanks to the name of the Lord. 5 There thrones for judgment were set, the thrones of the house of David. 6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! “May they be secure who love you! 7 Peace be within your walls and security within your towers!” 8 For my brothers and companions’ sake I will say, “Peace be within you!” 9 For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek your good.
