Psalms 128

1 A song of degrees. Blessed is euery one that feareth the Lord and walketh in his wayes.

He waiata; he pikitanga. Ka hari nga tangata katoa e wehi ana i a Ihowa: e haere ana i ana ara.

2 When thou eatest the labours of thine hands, thou shalt be blessed, and it shall be well with thee.

E kai hoki koe i te mahinga a ou ringa: e hari koe, a ka tau te pai ki a koe.

3 Thy wife shalbe as the fruitfull vine on the sides of thine house, and thy children like the oliue plantes round about thy table.

E rite tau wahine ki te waina hua, i roto rawa i tou whare: au tamariki ki nga mahuri oriwa, i nga taha o tau tepu.

4 Lo, surely thus shall the man be blessed, that feareth the Lord.

Na he pera te manaaki mo te tangata e wehi ana i a Ihowa.

5 The Lord out of Zion shall blesse thee, and thou shalt see the wealth of Ierusalem all the dayes of thy life.

Ka Manaakitia koe e Ihowa i Hiona; a e kite koe i te pai o Hiruharama i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe.

6 Yea, thou shalt see thy childrens children, and peace vpon Israel.

Ae, e kite koe i nga tamariki a au tamariki. Kia mau te rongo ki a Iharaira.
