Psalm 122 | English Standard Version

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.

Segond 21

Vœux pour la paix de Jérusalem

1 Chant des montées, [de David.] Je suis dans la joie quand on me dit: «Allons à la maison de l'Eternel!» 2 Nos pas se sont arrêtés dans tes portes, Jérusalem! 3 Jérusalem, tu es construite comme une ville qui forme un ensemble parfait. 4 C'est là que montent les tribus, les tribus de l'Eternel – c'est la règle en Israël – pour louer le nom de l'Eternel, 5 car là se trouvent les trônes réservés à la justice, les trônes de la famille de David. 6 Demandez la paix de Jérusalem! Que ceux qui t'aiment jouissent du repos! 7 Que la paix règne dans tes murs, et la tranquillité dans tes palais! 8 A cause de mes frères et de mes amis, je dirai: «Que la paix règne chez toi!» 9 A cause de la maison de l'Eternel, notre Dieu, je fais des vœux pour ton bonheur.
