< 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 happiness of every one fearing Jehovah, Who is walking in His ways.
2 What your hands provide, you will enjoy; you will be blessed and prosper.
The labour of thy hands thou surely eatest, Happy [art] thou, and good [is] to thee.
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.
Thy wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of thy house, Thy sons as olive plants around thy table.
4 Yes, indeed, the man will be blessed who honors Yahweh.
Lo, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing Jehovah.
5 May Yahweh bless you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
Jehovah doth bless thee out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of thy life,
6 May you live to see your children's children. May peace be on Israel.
And see the sons of thy sons! Peace on Israel!
