Abụ Ọma 128

1 Abụ nrigo. Ngọzị na-adịrị ndị niile na-atụ egwu Onyenwe anyị, ndị na-aga ije nʼirube isi nye ya.

A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. Happy are all those who worship the Lord, everyone who follows his ways!

2 Ị ga-eri mkpụrụ ọrụ aka gị; ọtụtụ ngọzị na ihe ịga nke ọma ga-abụ nke gị.

You will eat what your own hands have produced. You will be happy and do well.

3 Nwunye gị ga-adị ka osisi vaịnị na-amị mkpụrụ nʼime ụlọ gị; ụmụ gị ndị ikom ga-adịkwa ka ome osisi oliv gburugburu tebul gị.

Your wife will be like a fruitful vine growing in your home. Your children will be like the shoots of an olive tree around your table.

4 Otu a ka a ga-esi gọzie nwoke ahụ na-atụ egwu Onyenwe anyị.

This will certainly be the Lord's blessing on those who worship him.

5 Ka Onyenwe anyị gọzie gị site na Zayọn ụbọchị niile nke ndụ gị; ka i hụkwa ọdịmma Jerusalem,

May the Lord go on blessing you from Zion; may you see Jerusalem prosper all the days of your life.

6 ka ị dị ndụ hụ ụmụ ụmụ gị. Ka udo dịrị Izrel.

May you see your children's children. May Israel be at peace!
