Psalms 128

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

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

2 When thou eatest the labour of thy hands, happy shalt thou be, 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 shall be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of thy house; thy children like olive plants, 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 Behold, 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 bless thee out of Zion; and see thou the good of Jerusalem all the days 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 And see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel!

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