< Psalms 128 >

1 (Happy are/Yahweh is pleased with) those of you who revere him and do what he wants you to do [IDM].
Nzembo ya mobembo mpo na kokende na Tempelo ya Yawe. Esengo na moto oyo atosaka Yawe mpe alandaka banzela na Ye!
2 You will [be able to earn the money] that you [MTY] need to buy food; you will be happy and you will be prosperous.
Oliaka mbuma ya mosala na Yo; ozali moto ya esengo mpe ozali na bofuluki.
3 Your wife will be like a grapevine that bears many grapes [SIM]; she will give birth to many children. Your children who sit around your table will be like a strong olive [tree that has many] shoots [growing up around it] [SIM].
Kati na ndako na yo, mwasi na yo azali lokola nzete ya vino oyo ebotaka bambuma ebele; bana na yo bazali lokola bankona ya nzete ya olive zingazinga ya mesa na yo.
4 Every man who reveres Yahweh will be blessed like that.
Ezali ndenge wana nde Yawe apambolaka moto oyo atosaka Ye.
5 I wish/hope that Yahweh will bless all of you from [where he dwells] (on Zion [Hill]/[in Jerusalem]) and that you will see [the people of] Jerusalem prospering every day that you live!
Solo, Yawe akopambola yo wuta na Siona, mpe okomona bofuluki ya Yelusalemi mikolo nyonso ya bomoi na yo
6 I desire that you will live many years, long enough to see your grandchildren. I desire/hope that things will go well for [the people in] Israel!
mpe okomona bakitani na yo. Tika ete kimia ezala na Isalaele!
