< Psalms 128 >

1 A Song of Ascents. Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways.
A Song of Degrees. Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; who walk in his ways.
2 For you will eat the labor of your hands. You will be happy, and it will be well with you.
Thou shalt eat the labours of thy hands: blessed art thou, 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 on the sides of thy house: thy children as young olive-plants round about thy table.
4 Behold, this is how the man who fears the LORD is blessed.
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears 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.
May the Lord bless thee out of Sion; and mayest thou see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
6 Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.
And mayest thou see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
