Psalmien 128

1 Matkalaulu. Autuas on jokainen, joka pelkää Herraa, joka vaeltaa hänen teillänsä.

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

2 Sinä saat nauttia kättesi ansion; onnellinen sinä, sinun käy hyvin!

You will [be able to earn the money] that you [MTY] need to buy food; you will be happy and you will be prosperous.

3 Niinkuin hedelmällinen viiniköynnös on sinun emäntäsi sinun huoneesi perällä, niinkuin öljypuun vesat ovat sinun lapsesi sinun pöytäsi ympärillä.

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].

4 Sillä katso, näin siunataan mies, joka Herraa pelkää.

Every man who reveres Yahweh will be blessed like that.

5 Siunatkoon Herra sinua Siionista, niin sinä saat kaikkina elinpäivinäsi nähdä Jerusalemin onnellisena,

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!

6 saat nähdä lastesi lapset. Rauha Israelille!

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!
