Psalms 128

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

Fihirana fiakarana.

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.

Fa hohaninao tokoa ny asan’ ny tananao; Sambatra sady ambinina ianao.

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].

Ny vadinao dia tahaka ny voaloboka mahavokatra Ao anatin’ ny tranonao; Ny zanakao dia tahaka ny zanak’ oliva Manodidina ny latabatrao.

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

Indro, fa toy izany no hitahiana Izay lehilahy matahotra an’ i Jehovah.

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!

Hitahy anao avy any Ziona anie Jehovah; Ary ho faly hahita ny fahasoavan’ i Jerosalema anie ianao Amin’ ny andro rehetra hiainanao.

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!

Eny, hahita ny zafinao anie ianao; Fiadanana anie ho amin’ ny Isiraely.
