Psalms 128

1 [A Song of Ascents.] Blessed is everyone who fears YHWH, who walks in his ways.

A Canticle in steps. Blessed are all those who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways.

2 For you will eat the labor of your hands; you will be blessed, and it will be well with you.

For you will eat by the labors of your hands. Blessed are you, and it will be well with you.

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 is like an abundant vine on the sides of your house. Your sons are like young olive trees surrounding your table.

4 Look, thus is the man blessed who fears YHWH.

Behold, so will the man be blessed who fears the Lord.

5 May YHWH bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

May the Lord bless you from Zion, and may you see the good things of Jerusalem, all the days of your life.

6 Yes, may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.

And may you see the sons of your sons. Peace be upon Israel.
