< Psalms 128 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD, that walketh in his ways.
Ko e Hiva ʻae ʻalu hake. ʻOku monūʻia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku manavahē kia Sihova; ʻaia ʻoku ʻaʻeva ʻi hono ngaahi hala.
2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.
He te ke kai ʻae ngāue ʻa ho nima: te ke monūʻia, pea ʻe hoko ʻae lelei kiate koe.
3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of thine house: thy children like olive plants, round about thy table.
ʻE tatau ho uaifi mo e vaine ʻoku faʻa fua ʻi ho veʻe fale: ʻe tatau hoʻo fānau mo e ngaahi vaʻa ʻolive ʻoku kāpui hoʻo keinangaʻanga.
4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.
Vakai, ʻe pehē ʻae monūʻia ʻoe tangata ʻaia ʻoku ne manavahē kia Sihova.
5 The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
ʻE tāpuaki koe ʻe Sihova mei Saione: pea te ke mamata ki hono lelei ʻo Selūsalema ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo moʻui.
6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.
ʻIo, te ke mamata ki he fānau ʻa hoʻo fānau pea mo e melino ʻi ʻIsileli.
