< Psalms 128 >

1 [A Song of Ascents.] Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways.
Ubusisiwe wonke oyesabayo iNkosi, ohamba endleleni zayo.
2 For you will eat the labor of your hands; you will be blessed, and it will be well with you.
Ngoba uzakudla umsebenzi wezandla zakho; uzathokoza, njalo kuzakuba kuhle kuwe.
3 Your wife will be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of your house; your children like olive plants, around your table.
Umkakho uzakuba njengevini elithelayo emaceleni endlu yakho, abantwana bakho bazakuba njengamahlumela omhlwathi bezingelezele itafula lakho.
4 Look, thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD.
Ngoba khangela, ngokunjalo izabusiswa indoda eyesabayo iNkosi.
5 May the LORD bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
INkosi izakubusisa iseZiyoni, njalo ubone okuhle kweJerusalema insuku zonke zempilo yakho,
6 Yes, may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
yebo, uzabona abantwana babantwana bakho. Ukuthula kakube phezu kukaIsrayeli!
