Psalms 128

1 A Song of degrees. Blessed [is] every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.

He waiata; he pikitanga. Ka hari nga tangata katoa e wehi ana i a Ihowa: e haere ana i ana ara.

2 For thou shalt eat the labor of thy hands: happy [shalt] thou be, and [it shall be] well with thee.

E kai hoki koe i te mahinga a ou ringa: e hari koe, a ka tau te pai ki a koe.

3 Thy wife [shall be] as a fruitful vine by the sides of thy house: thy children like olive plants around thy table.

E rite tau wahine ki te waina hua, i roto rawa i tou whare: au tamariki ki nga mahuri oriwa, i nga taha o tau tepu.

4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.

Na he pera te manaaki mo te tangata e wehi ana i a Ihowa.

5 The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

Ka Manaakitia koe e Ihowa i Hiona; a e kite koe i te pai o Hiruharama i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe.

6 Yes, thou shalt see thy children's children, [and] peace upon Israel.

Ae, e kite koe i nga tamariki a au tamariki. Kia mau te rongo ki a Iharaira.
