Zaburi 128

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

A Song of degrees. Blessed is every one that feareth Jehovah, that walketh in his ways.

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

For thou shalt eat the labour of thy hands; happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

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

Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine in the inner part of thy house; thy children like olive-plants round about thy table.

4 Ndiyo, hakika, mtu anaye muheshimu Yahwe atabarikiwa.

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

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

Jehovah will bless thee out of Zion; and mayest thou see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life,

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

And see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel!
