Psalms 128

1 “A song of the degrees.” Happy is every one that feareth the Lord, that walketh in his ways.

A Song of Degrees. Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; who walk in his ways.

2 When thou eatest the labor of thy hands: [then] wilt thou be happy, and it shall be well with thee.

You shall eat the labours of your hands: blessed are you, and it shall be well with you.

3 Thy wife is [then] as a fruitful vine in the recesses of thy house: thy children, like olive-plants round about thy table.

Your wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the sides of your house: your children as young olive-plants round about your table.

4 Behold, truly thus shall be blessed the man that feareth the Lord.

Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears the Lord.

5 May the Lord bless thee out of Zion: and see thou the happiness of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

May the Lord bless you out of Sion; and may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

6 And see thou thy children's children: may there be peace upon Israel.

And may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
