Psalms 128

1 A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. O the blessedness of everyone fearing YHWH, Who is walking in His ways.

A Song of degrees. Blessed [is] every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.

2 You surely eat the labor of your hands, You [are] blessed, and good [is] to you.

For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy [shalt] thou [be], and [it shall be] well with thee.

3 Your wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of your house, Your sons as olive plants around your table.

Thy wife [shall be] as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.

4 Behold, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing YHWH.

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

5 YHWH blesses you out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of your life,

The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

6 And see the sons of your sons! Peace on Israel!

Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, [and] peace upon Israel.
