< Psalms 128 >

1 [A Song of Ascents.] Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways.
A song of ascents. Blessed is everyone who honors Yahweh, who walks in his ways.
2 For you will eat the labor of your hands; you will be blessed, and it will be well with you.
What your hands provide, you will enjoy; you will be blessed and prosper.
3 Your wife will be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of your house; your children like olive plants, around your table.
Your wife will be like a fruitful vine in your house; your children will be like olive plants as they sit around your table.
4 Look, thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD.
Yes, indeed, the man will be blessed who honors Yahweh.
5 May the LORD bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
May Yahweh bless you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
6 Yes, may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
May you live to see your children's children. May peace be on Israel.
