Psalms 128

1 Orin fún ìgòkè. Ìbùkún ni fún gbogbo ẹni tí ó bẹ̀rù Olúwa: tí ó sì ń rìn ní ọ̀nà rẹ̀.

“A song of the degrees.” Happy is every one that feareth the Lord, that walketh in his ways.

2 Nítorí tí ìwọ yóò jẹ iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ rẹ ìbùkún ni fún ọ; yóò sì dára fún ọ.

When thou eatest the labor of thy hands: [then] wilt thou be happy, and it shall be well with thee.

3 Obìnrin rẹ yóò dàbí àjàrà rere eléso púpọ̀ ní àárín ilé rẹ; àwọn ọmọ rẹ yóò dàbí igi olifi tí ó yí tábìlì rẹ ká.

Thy wife is [then] as a fruitful vine in the recesses of thy house: thy children, like olive-plants round about thy table.

4 Kíyèsi i pé, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a ó bùsi i fún ọkùnrin náà, tí ó bẹ̀rù Olúwa.

Behold, truly thus shall be blessed the man that feareth the Lord.

5 Kí Olúwa kí ó bùsi i fún ọ láti Sioni wá, kí ìwọ kí ó sì máa rí ìre Jerusalẹmu ní ọjọ́ ayé rẹ gbogbo.

May the Lord bless thee out of Zion: and see thou the happiness of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

6 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ìwọ kí ó sì máa rí àti ọmọdọ́mọ rẹ. Láti àlàáfíà lára Israẹli.

And see thou thy children's children: may there be peace upon Israel.
