Psalms 128

1 A song of degrees. Blessed is euery one that feareth the Lord and walketh in his wayes.

A song of ascents. Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in His ways!

2 When thou eatest the labours of thine hands, thou shalt be blessed, and it shall be well with thee.

For when you eat the fruit of your labor, blessings and prosperity will be yours.

3 Thy wife shalbe as the fruitfull vine on the sides of thine house, and thy children like the oliue plantes round about thy table.

Your wife will be like a fruitful vine flourishing within your house, your sons like olive shoots sitting around your table.

4 Lo, surely thus shall the man be blessed, that feareth the Lord.

In this way indeed shall blessing come to the man who fears the LORD.

5 The Lord out of Zion shall blesse thee, and thou shalt see the wealth of Ierusalem all the dayes of thy life.

May the LORD bless you from Zion, that you may see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life,

6 Yea, thou shalt see thy childrens children, and peace vpon Israel.

that you may see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel!
