Zabbuli 128

1 Oluyimba nga balinnya amadaala. Balina omukisa abatya Katonda; era abatambulira mu makubo ge.

“A song of the degrees.” Happy is every one that feareth the Lord, that walketh in his ways.

2 Olirya ebibala ebiriva mu kutegana kwo; oliweebwa emikisa era olifuna ebirungi.

When thou eatest the labor of thy hands: [then] wilt thou be happy, and it shall be well with thee.

3 Mu nnyumba yo, mukyala wo aliba ng’omuzabbibu ogubala ennyo; abaana bo aboobulenzi baliba ng’amatabi g’emizeeyituuni nga beetoolodde emmeeza yo.

Thy wife is [then] as a fruitful vine in the recesses of thy house: thy children, like olive-plants round about thy table.

4 Bw’atyo bw’aweebwa emikisa omuntu atya Mukama.

Behold, truly thus shall be blessed the man that feareth the Lord.

5 Mukama akuwenga omukisa ng’asinziira mu Sayuuni, era olabe Yerusaalemi nga kijjudde ebirungi ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwo.

May the Lord bless thee out of Zion: and see thou the happiness of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

6 Owangaale olabe abaana b’abaana bo! Emirembe gibeere mu Isirayiri.

And see thou thy children's children: may there be peace upon Israel.
