Mapisarema 128

1 Rwiyo rworwendo. Vakaropafadzwa vose vanotya Jehovha, vanofamba munzira dzake.

Blessed is every one that fears the LORD; that walks in his ways.

2 Uchadya chibereko chokushanda kwako; maropafadzo nokubudirira zvichava zvako.

For you shall eat the labor of your hands: happy shall you be, and it shall be well with you.

3 Mukadzi wako achava somuzambiringa unobereka, pakati peimba yako; vanakomana vako vachaita samabukira omuorivhi, vakakomberedza tafura yako.

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

4 Ndizvo zvakaita munhu akaropafadzwa, anotya Jehovha.

Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that fears the LORD.

5 Jehovha ngaakuropafadzei kubva kuZioni, mazuva ose oupenyu hwenyu; muone henyu kubudirira kweJerusarema,

The LORD shall bless you out of Zion: and you shall see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

6 uye murarame kuti muone vana vavana venyu. Rugare ngaruve pana Israeri.

Yes, you shall see your children’s children, and peace on Israel.
