< Psalms 128 >
1 “A song of the degrees.” Happy is every one that feareth the Lord, that walketh in his ways.
Wimbo wa kwenda juu. Heri ni wale wote wamchao Bwana, waendao katika njia zake.
2 When thou eatest the labor of thy hands: [then] wilt thou be happy, and it shall be well with thee.
Utakula matunda ya kazi yako; baraka na mafanikio vitakuwa vyako.
3 Thy wife is [then] as a fruitful vine in the recesses of thy house: thy children, like olive-plants round about thy table.
Mke wako atakuwa kama mzabibu uzaao ndani ya nyumba yako; wana wako watakuwa kama machipukizi ya mizeituni kuizunguka meza yako.
4 Behold, truly thus shall be blessed the man that feareth the Lord.
Hivyo ndivyo atakavyobarikiwa mtu amchaye Bwana.
5 May the Lord bless thee out of Zion: and see thou the happiness of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
Bwana na akubariki kutoka Sayuni siku zote za maisha yako, na uone mafanikio ya Yerusalemu,
6 And see thou thy children's children: may there be peace upon Israel.
nawe ujaliwe kuishi uone watoto wa watoto wako. Amani iwe juu ya Israeli.
