< Psalms 128 >

1 A Song of Ascents. Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways.
BLESSED is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in his ways.
2 For you will eat the labour of your hands. You will be happy, and it will be well with you.
For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.
3 Your wife will be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house, your children like olive shoots around your table.
Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.
4 Behold, this is how the man who fears the LORD is blessed.
Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord.
5 May the LORD bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
The Lord shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
6 Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.
Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, and peace upon Israel.
