Psalms 128

1 (Happy are/Yahweh is pleased with) those of you who revere him and do what he wants you to do [IDM].

Oluyimba nga balinnya amadaala. Balina omukisa abatya Katonda; era abatambulira mu makubo ge.

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.

Olirya ebibala ebiriva mu kutegana kwo; oliweebwa emikisa era olifuna ebirungi.

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].

Mu nnyumba yo, mukyala wo aliba ng’omuzabbibu ogubala ennyo; abaana bo aboobulenzi baliba ng’amatabi g’emizeeyituuni nga beetoolodde emmeeza yo.

4 Every man who reveres Yahweh will be blessed like that.

Bw’atyo bw’aweebwa emikisa omuntu atya Mukama.

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!

Mukama akuwenga omukisa ng’asinziira mu Sayuuni, era olabe Yerusaalemi nga kijjudde ebirungi ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwo.

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!

Owangaale olabe abaana b’abaana bo! Emirembe gibeere mu Isirayiri.
