Psalms 128

1 A Song of Ascents. Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD, that walketh in his ways.

A Song of the Ascents. O the happiness of every one fearing Jehovah, Who is walking in His ways.

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

The labour of thy hands thou surely eatest, Happy [art] thou, and good [is] to thee.

3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of thine house: thy children like olive plants, round about thy table.

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

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

Lo, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing Jehovah.

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

Jehovah doth bless thee out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of thy life,

6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.

And see the sons of thy sons! Peace on Israel!
