Dee 122 Psalm

En leet fonn nehejcht gone.

Ekj freid mie aus see to mie säde: "Well wie no däm Herr Gott sien Hus gone."

Onnse Feet selle enn diene Paute stone, O Jerusalem.

Jerusalem es ne Staut dee soo jebuet es daut dee toop paust ;

Wua dee Jeschlajchte han gone, däm Herr Gott siene Jeschlajchte; fa daut Iesrael Zeijchnis; Dank to jäwe to däm Herr Gott sien Nome.

Dan dee Jerejcht Troone sent doa bestädijcht, Doft sien Hus siene Troone.

Doot bäde fa Fräd fa Jerusalem; dee die Leef habe selle Woolhabent senne.

Mucht Fräd enn diene Wenj senne, Woolhabent enn diene Torme.

Omm miene Breeda un Komrode äare haulwe woa ekj nu sjae: Fräd met junt,

Ekj woa dien Goots seakje wäajen däm Herr Gott, onns Gott, sien Hus.

Psalm 122

A song of ascents. Of David.

I rejoiced with those who said to me,
    “Let us go to the house of the Lord.”
Our feet are standing
    in your gates, Jerusalem.

Jerusalem is built like a city
    that is closely compacted together.
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.
There stand the thrones for judgment,
    the thrones of the house of David.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
    “May those who love(A) you be secure.
May there be peace(B) within your walls
    and security within your citadels.(C)
For the sake of my family and friends,
    I will say, “Peace be within you.”
For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,
    I will seek your prosperity.(D)
