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.

Lied zur Wallfahrt nach Jerusalem

1 Ein Wallfahrtslied. Von David. Ich freute mich, als man mir sagte: Zum Haus des HERRN wollen wir gehen. 2 Schon stehen unsere Füße in deinen Toren, Jerusalem: 3 Jerusalem, als Stadt erbaut, die fest in sich gefügt ist. 4 Dorthin zogen die Stämme hinauf, die Stämme des HERRN, / wie es Gebot ist für Israel, den Namen des HERRN zu preisen. 5 Denn dort stehen Throne für das Gericht, die Throne des Hauses David. 6 Erbittet Frieden für Jerusalem! Geborgen seien, die dich lieben. 7 Friede sei in deinen Mauern, Geborgenheit in deinen Häusern! 8 Wegen meiner Brüder und meiner Freunde will ich sagen: In dir sei Friede. 9 Wegen des Hauses des HERRN, unseres Gottes, will ich dir Glück erflehen.
