Zaburi 128

1 Amebarikiwa kila mtu amchaye Yahwe, atembeaye katika njia zake.

A song of ascents. Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in His ways!

2 Kazi ya mikono yako, wewe utaifurahia; utabarikiwa na kufanikiwa.

For when you eat the fruit of your labor, blessings and prosperity will be yours.

3 Mke wako atakuwa kama mzabibu uzaao katika nyumba yako; wanao watakuwa kama miche ya mimea ya mizeituni wakaapo kuzunguka meza yako.

Your wife will be like a fruitful vine flourishing within your house, your sons like olive shoots sitting around your table.

4 Ndiyo, hakika, mtu anaye muheshimu Yahwe atabarikiwa.

In this way indeed shall blessing come to the man who fears the LORD.

5 Mungu na akubariki toka Sayuni; na uweze kuona mafanikio ya Yerusalemu siku zote za maisha yako.

May the LORD bless you from Zion, that you may see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life,

6 Uishi uwaone wana wa wanao. Amani iwe na Israli.

that you may see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel!
