Psalms 128

1 A Song of Ascents. How happy is every one that revereth Yahweh, who walketh in his ways!

Nkunga wunyimbudulu mu nzila yikuendila ku nzo Yave. Lusakumunu kuidi batu boso bobo bobo beti kinzika Yave, bandiatilanga mu zinzila ziandi.

2 The labour of thine own hands, surely thou shalt eat. How happy thou, and well for thine!

Ngeyo wela dia mbutu wu kisalu kiaku. Lusakumunu ayi mamboti biela ba biaku.

3 Thy wife, like a fruitful vine, within the recesses of thy house, —Thy children, like plantings of olive-trees, round about thy table.

Nketo aku wela ba banga vinu yidi mbozi yiwombo mu khati nzo aku; bana baku banga mintiudila mi olive muyendila mezꞌaku.

4 Lo! thus, shall be blessed the man who revereth Yahweh.

Buawu bobo buididi mutu wusakumunu, wowo weti kinzika Yave.

5 Yahweh will bless thee, out of Zion, —and behold thou the welfare of Jerusalem, all the days of thy life!

Bika Yave kalusakumuna, tona ku Sioni mu bilumbu bioso bi luzingu lueno; bika lumona mamboti ma Yelusalemi

6 And behold thou thy children’s children, —Prosperity on Israel!

ayi bika lumona bana ba bana beno. Bika ndembama yiba vadi Iseli.
