< Psalms 128 >
1 [A Song of Ascents.] Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways.
Canticum graduum. [Beati omnes qui timent Dominum, qui ambulant in viis ejus.
2 For you will eat the labor of your hands; you will be blessed, and it will be well with you.
Labores manuum tuarum quia manducabis: beatus es, et bene tibi erit.
3 Your wife will be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of your house; your children like olive plants, around your table.
Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuæ; filii tui sicut novellæ olivarum in circuitu mensæ tuæ.
4 Look, thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD.
Ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum.
5 May the LORD bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
Benedicat tibi Dominus ex Sion, et videas bona Jerusalem omnibus diebus vitæ tuæ.
6 Yes, may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
Et videas filios filiorum tuorum: pacem super Israël.]
