< Psalms 128 >
1 A Song of degrees. Blessed is every one that feareth Jehovah, that walketh in his ways.
Ɔsorokorɔ dwom. Nhyira ne wɔn a wɔsuro Awurade, na wɔnante nʼakwan so.
2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thy hands; happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.
Wobɛdi wʼadwuma so aba; nhyira ne yiedie bɛyɛ wo dea.
3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine in the inner part of thy house; thy children like olive-plants round about thy table.
Wo yere bɛyɛ sɛ bobe a ɛso aba wɔ wo fie; na wo mmammarima ayɛ sɛ ngo dua a afifiri atwa wo ɛpono ho ahyia.
4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth Jehovah.
Yei ne onipa a wɔahyira noɔ, deɛ ɔsuro Awurade no.
5 Jehovah will bless thee out of Zion; and mayest thou see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life,
Awurade nhyira wo mfiri Sion wo nkwa nna nyinaa; na ɔmma wo nhunu Yerusalem nkɔsoɔ,
6 And see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel!
na ɔmma wo ntena ase nhunu wo mma mma. Asomdwoeɛ nka Israel.
