Zaburi 128

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

A Song of Ascents. Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways.

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

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

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 as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house, your children like olive shoots around your table.

4 Ndiyo, hakika, mtu anaye muheshimu Yahwe atabarikiwa.

Behold, this is how the man who fears the LORD is blessed.

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

May the LORD bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

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

Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.
