Psalm 122

NIV — New International Version Bible (NIV)

NAV — Ketab El Hayat (NAV)

Verse 1

I rejoiced with those who said to me,
“Let us go to the house of the Lord.”

فَرِحْتُ بِالْقَائِلِينَ لِي: لِنَذْهَبْ مَعاً إِلَى بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ.

Verse 2

Our feet are standing
in your gates, Jerusalem.

تَقِفُ أَقْدَامُنَا الآنَ دَاخِلَ أَبْوَابِكِ يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ.

Verse 3

Jerusalem is built like a city
that is closely compacted together.

أُورُشَلِيمُ الْمَبْنِيَّةُ كَمَدِينَةٍ مُتَمَاسِكَةٍ مُتَّحِدَةٍ.

Verse 4

That is where the tribes go up—
the tribes of the Lord—
to praise the name of the Lord
according to the statute given to Israel.

إِلَيْهَا صَعِدَتِ الأَسْبَاطُ، أَسْبَاطُ الرَّبِّ لِتَرْفَعَ الشُّكْرَ لَهُ بِحَسَبِ أَوَامِرِهِ.

Verse 5

There stand the thrones for judgment,
the thrones of the house of David.

هُنَاكَ نُصِبَتْ عُرُوشُ الْقَضَاءِ، عُرُوشُ آلِ دَاوُدَ.

Verse 6

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
“May those who love you be secure.

صَلُّوا لأَجْلِ سَلامِ أُورُشَلِيمَ. لِيُفْلِحْ مُحِبُّوكِ وَيَطْمَئِنُّوا.

Verse 7

May there be peace within your walls
and security within your citadels.”

لِيَكُنِ السَّلامُ دَاخِلَ أَسْوَارِكِ، وَالأَمَانُ دَاخِلَ قُصُورِكِ.

Verse 8

For the sake of my family and friends,
I will say, “Peace be within you.”

مِنْ أَجْلِ إِخْوَتِي وَأَصْحَابِي أَقُولُ: لِيَسُدْ فِيكِ سَلامٌ.

Verse 9

For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,
I will seek your prosperity.

مِنْ أَجْلِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا أَلْتَمِسُ لَكِ خَيْراً.
