< Psalms 128 >
1 Blessed is every one that feareth Yhwh; that walketh in his ways.
The song of greces. Blessid ben alle men, that dreden the Lord; that gon in hise weies.
2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.
For thou schalt ete the trauels of thin hondis; thou art blessid, and it schal be wel to thee.
3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.
Thi wijf as a plenteous vyne; in the sidis of thin hous. Thi sones as the newe sprenges of olyue trees; in the cumpas of thi bord.
4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth Yhwh.
Lo! so a man schal be blessid; that dredith the Lord.
5 Yhwh shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
The Lord blesse thee fro Syon; and se thou the goodis of Jerusalem in alle the daies of thi lijf.
6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, and peace upon Israel.
And se thou the sones of thi sones; se thou pees on Israel.
