< Psalms 128 >
1 A song of ascents. Blessed is everyone who honors Yahweh, who walks in his ways.
A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. O the blessedness of everyone fearing YHWH, Who is walking in His ways.
2 What your hands provide, you will enjoy; you will be blessed and prosper.
You surely eat the labor of your hands, You [are] blessed, and good [is] to you.
3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine in your house; your children will be like olive plants as they sit around your table.
Your wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of your house, Your sons as olive plants around your table.
4 Yes, indeed, the man will be blessed who honors Yahweh.
Behold, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing YHWH.
5 May Yahweh bless you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
YHWH blesses you out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of your life,
6 May you live to see your children's children. May peace be on Israel.
And see the sons of your sons! Peace on Israel!
