Saame 122

1I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the LORD!”
1Naʻaku fiefia ʻi heʻenau pehē mai kiate au, “Ke tau ō ki he fale ʻo Sihova.”
2Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!
2‌ʻE tuʻu homau vaʻe ki lotoʻā ʻi ho ngaahi matapā, ʻE Selūsalema.
3Jerusalem—built as a city that is bound firmly together,
3Kuo langa ʻa Selūsalema ʻo hangē ko e kolo ʻoku māʻopoʻopo:
4to which the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, as was decreed for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
4‌ʻAia ʻoku ʻalu hake ki ai ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo Sihova, ki he fakamoʻoni ʻa ʻIsileli, ke ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi ki he huafa ʻo Sihova.
5There thrones for judgment were set, the thrones of the house of David.
5He ʻoku fokotuʻu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi nofoʻa ʻoe fakamaau, ko e ngaahi nofoʻa ʻoe fale ʻo Tevita.
6Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! “May they be secure who love you!
6Mou hūfia ke melino ʻa Selūsalema: “ʻE monūʻia ʻakinautolu ʻoku nau ʻofa kiate koe.
7Peace be within your walls and security within your towers!”
7Ke ʻai ʻae melino ʻi ho ngaahi lotoʻā maka, mo e monūʻia ʻi ho ngaahi fale fakaʻeiʻeiki.”
8For my brothers and companions’ sake I will say, “Peace be within you!”
8Pea koeʻuhi ko hoku ngaahi kāinga mo hoku ngaahi kaumeʻa, te u lea ni, “Ke ʻiate koe ʻae melino.”
9For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.
9Koeʻuhi ko e fale ʻo Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, te u kumi ke ke lelei ai.
