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 of Ascents. Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways.

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

For you will eat the labour of your hands. You will be happy, and it will be well with you.

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 as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house, your children like olive shoots around your table.

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

Behold, this is how the man who fears the LORD is blessed.

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

May the LORD bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

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

Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.
