< Mapisarema 128 >
1 Rwiyo rworwendo. Vakaropafadzwa vose vanotya Jehovha, vanofamba munzira dzake.
A Song of the going up. Happy is the worshipper of the Lord, who is walking in his ways.
2 Uchadya chibereko chokushanda kwako; maropafadzo nokubudirira zvichava zvako.
You will have the fruit of the work of your hands: happy will you be, and all will be well for you.
3 Mukadzi wako achava somuzambiringa unobereka, pakati peimba yako; vanakomana vako vachaita samabukira omuorivhi, vakakomberedza tafura yako.
Your wife will be like a fertile vine in the inmost parts of your house: your children will be like olive plants round your table.
4 Ndizvo zvakaita munhu akaropafadzwa, anotya Jehovha.
See! this is the blessing of the worshipper of the Lord.
5 Jehovha ngaakuropafadzei kubva kuZioni, mazuva ose oupenyu hwenyu; muone henyu kubudirira kweJerusarema,
May the Lord send you blessing out of Zion: may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
6 uye murarame kuti muone vana vavana venyu. Rugare ngaruve pana Israeri.
May you see your children's children. Peace be on Israel.
