< Psalms 128 >
1 A Song of Degrees. Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; who walk in his ways.
[A Song of Ascents.] Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways.
2 You shall eat the labours of your hands: blessed are you, and it shall be well with you.
For you will eat the labor of your hands; you will be blessed, and it will be well with you.
3 Your wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the sides of your house: your children as young olive-plants round about your table.
Your wife will be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of your house; your children like olive plants, around your table.
4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears the Lord.
Look, thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD.
5 May the Lord bless you out of Sion; and may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
May the LORD bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
6 And may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
Yes, may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
