Amahubo 128

1 Ingoma yemiqanso. Babusisiwe bonke abamesabayo uThixo, abahamba ngezindlela zakhe.

Blessed is every one that feareth YHWH; that walketh in his ways.

2 Lizakudla izithelo zomsebenzi wenu; izibusiso lokuphumelela kuzakuba ngokwenu.

For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: joyful shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

3 Umkakho wesifazane uzakuba njengevini elithela kakhulu phakathi kwendlu yakho; amadodana akho azakuba njengamahlumela e-oliva esetafuleni yakho.

Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.

4 Ibusisiwe kanjalo indoda eyesaba uThixo.

Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth YHWH.

5 Sengathi uThixo angakubusisa eseZiyoni insuku zonke zokuphila kwakho; sengathi ungakubona ukuphumelela kweJerusalema,

YHWH shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

6 njalo sengathi ungaphila uze ubone isizukulwane sakho. Ukuthula kakube ku-Israyeli.

Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.
