Psalms 128

1 A Canticle in steps. Blessed are all those who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways.

A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. O the blessedness of everyone fearing YHWH, Who is walking in His ways.

2 For you will eat by the labors of your hands. Blessed are you, and it will be well with you.

You surely eat the labor of your hands, You [are] blessed, and good [is] to you.

3 Your wife is like an abundant vine on the sides of your house. Your sons are like young olive trees surrounding your table.

Your wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of your house, Your sons as olive plants around your table.

4 Behold, so will the man be blessed who fears the Lord.

Behold, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing YHWH.

5 May the Lord bless you from Zion, and may you see the good things of Jerusalem, all the days of your life.

YHWH blesses you out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of your life,

6 And may you see the sons of your sons. Peace be upon Israel.

And see the sons of your sons! Peace on Israel!
