< Psalms 128 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways.
A Song of degrees. Blessed [is] every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.
2 For you will eat the labor 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.
