1Yo me alegro cuando me dicen: «Vamos a la casa del SEÑOR».2¡Jerusalén, ya nuestros pies se han plantado ante tus portones!3¡Jerusalén, ciudad edificada para que en ella todos se congreguen![1]4A ella suben las tribus, las tribus del SEÑOR, para alabar su nombre conforme a la ordenanza que recibió Israel.5Allí están los tribunales de justicia, los tribunales de la dinastía de David.6Pidamos por la paz de Jerusalén: «Que vivan en paz los que te aman.7Que haya paz dentro de tus murallas, seguridad en tus fortalezas».8Y ahora, por mis hermanos y amigos te digo: «¡Deseo que tengas paz!»9Por la casa del SEÑOR nuestro Dios procuraré tu bienestar.
Psalm 122
English Standard Version
Let Us Go to the House of the Lord
1A 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)2Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!3Jerusalem—built as a city that is bound firmly together, (Neh 4,6; Ps 147,2)4to 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)5There 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)6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! “May they be secure who love you! (Ps 51,18; Jer 29,7)7Peace be within your walls and security within your towers!” (Ps 48,13)8For my brothers and companions’ sake I will say, “Peace be within you!” (1Sam 25,6; Ps 85,8)9For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek your good. (Neh 2,10; Est 10,3)
