Psalms 128

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

A song of ascents. Happy 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.

You will eat what your hands have toiled for, and be happy and prosperous!

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.

Like a fruitful vine shall your wife be in the innermost room of your house: your children, like olive shoots, round about your table.

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

See! This is the blessing of 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;

The Lord shall bless you from Zion. You will see Jerusalem nourish all the days of your life.

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

You will see your children’s children. Peace upon Israel.
