Amahubo 128

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

A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. O the blessedness of everyone fearing YHWH, Who is walking in His ways.

2 Lizakudla izithelo zomsebenzi wenu; izibusiso lokuphumelela kuzakuba ngokwenu.

You surely eat the labor of your hands, You [are] blessed, and good [is] to you.

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

Your wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of your house, Your sons as olive plants around your table.

4 Ibusisiwe kanjalo indoda eyesaba uThixo.

Behold, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing YHWH.

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

YHWH blesses you out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of your life,

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

And see the sons of your sons! Peace on Israel!
