Psalms 128

1 A Song of the Ascents. O the happiness of every one fearing Jehovah, Who is walking in His ways.

POMAIKAI ka poe a pau i makau aku ia Iehova, A hele hoi ma kona mau alanui.

2 The labour of thy hands thou surely eatest, Happy [art] thou, and good [is] to thee.

E ai no oe i ka waiwai o kou mau lima, He pomaikai no kou, a he pono no hoi.

3 Thy wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of thy house, Thy sons as olive plants around thy table.

E like no kau wahine me na kumuwaina hua nui, Ma na aoao o kou hale; E like no hoi kau mau keiki me na laau oliva, E ku puni ana i kou papaaina.

4 Lo, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing Jehovah.

Aia hoi! pela e hoopomaikaiia mai ai ke kanaka, Nana e makau aku ia Iehova.

5 Jehovah doth bless thee out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of thy life,

E hoomaikai mai o Iehova ia oe mai Ziona mai; A e ike no oe i ka pono o Ierusalema, I na la a pau o kou ola ana.

6 And see the sons of thy sons! Peace on Israel!

E ike no hoi oe i na keiki o kau poe keiki, A me ka maluhia maluna o ka Iseraela.
