< Zaburi 128 >

1 Amebarikiwa kila mtu amchaye Yahwe, atembeaye katika njia zake.
“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” Happy is he who feareth the LORD, Who walketh in his ways!
2 Kazi ya mikono yako, wewe utaifurahia; utabarikiwa na kufanikiwa.
Thou shalt eat the labor 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 like a fruitful vine within thy house; Thy children like olive-branches round about thy table.
4 Ndiyo, hakika, mtu anaye muheshimu Yahwe atabarikiwa.
Behold! thus happy is the man who feareth the LORD!
5 Mungu na akubariki toka Sayuni; na uweze kuona mafanikio ya Yerusalemu siku zote za maisha yako.
Jehovah shall bless thee out of Zion, And thou shalt see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of thy life;
6 Uishi uwaone wana wa wanao. Amani iwe na Israli.
Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children. Peace be to Israel!
