Salme 128

1 Sang til Festrejserne. Salig enhver, som frygter HERREN og gaar paa hans Veje!

A Song of Ascents. Happy is every one that feareth the LORD, that walketh in His ways.

2 Dit Arbejdes Frugt skal du nyde, salig er du, det gaar dig vel!

When thou eatest the labour of thy hands, happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

3 Som en frugtbar Vinranke er din Hustru inde i dit Hus, som Oliekviste er dine Sønner rundt om dit Bord.

Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of thy house; thy children like olive plants, round about thy table.

4 Se, saa velsignes den Mand, der frygter HERREN.

Behold, surely thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.

5 HERREN velsigne dig fra Zion, at du maa se Jerusalems Lykke alle dit Livs Dage

The LORD bless thee out of Zion; and see thou the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life;

6 og se dine Sønners Sønner! Fred over Israel!

And see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel!
