Salme 128

1 Lyksalig hver den, som frygter Herren, som gaar paa hans Veje!

Blessed is everyone who fears Adonai, who walks in his ways.

2 Thi du skal æde Frugten af dine Hænders Arbejde; lyksalig er du, og det gaar dig vel.

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

3 Din Hustru er som et frugtbart Vintræ paa Siderne af dit Hus, dine Børn som Oliekviste omkring dit Bord.

Your wife will be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of your house; your children like olive plants, around your table.

4 Se, saaledes skal den Mand velsignes, som frygter Herren.

Behold, thus is the man blessed who fears Adonai.

5 Herren skal velsigne dig fra Zion, og du skal se Jerusalems Lykke alle dit Livs Dage.

May Adonai bless you out of Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking], and may you see the good of Jerusalem [City of peace] all the days of your life.

6 Og du skal se Børn af dine Børn! Fred være over Israel!

Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel [God prevails].
