< Psalms 128 >
1 A Song of Degrees. Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; who walk in his ways.
Rwiyo rworwendo. Vakaropafadzwa vose vanotya Jehovha, vanofamba munzira dzake.
2 Thou shalt eat the labours of thy hands: blessed art thou, and it shall be well with thee.
Uchadya chibereko chokushanda kwako; maropafadzo nokubudirira zvichava zvako.
3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the sides of thy house: thy children as young olive-plants round about thy table.
Mukadzi wako achava somuzambiringa unobereka, pakati peimba yako; vanakomana vako vachaita samabukira omuorivhi, vakakomberedza tafura yako.
4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears the Lord.
Ndizvo zvakaita munhu akaropafadzwa, anotya Jehovha.
5 May the Lord bless thee out of Sion; and mayest thou see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
Jehovha ngaakuropafadzei kubva kuZioni, mazuva ose oupenyu hwenyu; muone henyu kubudirira kweJerusarema,
6 And mayest thou see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
uye murarame kuti muone vana vavana venyu. Rugare ngaruve pana Israeri.
