< Psalms 128 >

1 A Song of Degrees. Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; who walk in his ways.
A Song of the Ascents. O the happiness of every one fearing Jehovah, Who is walking in His ways.
2 You shall eat the labors of your hands: blessed are you, and it shall be well with you.
The labour of thy hands thou surely eatest, Happy [art] thou, and good [is] to thee.
3 Your wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the sides of your house: your children as young olive-plants round about your table.
Thy wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of thy house, Thy sons as olive plants around thy table.
4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears the Lord.
Lo, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing Jehovah.
5 May the Lord bless you out of Sion; and may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
Jehovah doth bless thee out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of thy life,
6 And may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
And see the sons of thy sons! Peace on Israel!
