Mapisarema 128

¹Vakaropafadzwa vose vanotya Jehovha, Vanofamba munzira dzake.Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.

²Nokuti iwe uchadya zvawakabatira namaoko ako; Uchava nomufaro, uye zvichava zvakanaka newe.For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

³Mukadzi wako uchava somuzambiringa, unobereka zvakanaka, mukati meimba yako; Vana vako vachava semiti yemiorivhi, vakakomberedza tafura yako.Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.

⁴Tarirai, murume anotya Jehovha Acharopafadzwa saizvozvo.Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.

⁵Jehovha achakuropafadza ari paZiyoni; Uchaona kukomborerwa kweJerusaremu mazuva ose oupenyu hwako.The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

⁶Zvirokwazvo, uchaona vana vavana vako. Isiraeri ngaave norugare.Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, and peace upon Israel.
