< Psalms 128 >

1 The song of greces. Blessid ben alle men, that dreden the Lord; that gon in hise weies.
A Song of Degrees. Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; who walk in his ways.
2 For thou schalt ete the trauels of thin hondis; thou art blessid, and it schal be wel to thee.
You shall eat the labors of your hands: blessed are you, and it shall be well with you.
3 Thi wijf as a plenteous vyne; in the sidis of thin hous. Thi sones as the newe sprenges of olyue trees; in the cumpas of thi bord.
Your wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the sides of your house: your children as young olive-plants round about your table.
4 Lo! so a man schal be blessid; that dredith the Lord.
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears the Lord.
5 The Lord blesse thee fro Syon; and se thou the goodis of Jerusalem in alle the daies of thi lijf.
May the Lord bless you out of Sion; and may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
6 And se thou the sones of thi sones; se thou pees on Israel.
And may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
