Psalms 128

1 A Song of the Ascents. O the happiness of every one fearing Jehovah, Who is walking in His ways.

A Song of degrees. Blessed is every one that feareth Jehovah, that walketh in his ways.

2 The labour of thy hands thou surely eatest, Happy [art] thou, and good [is] to thee.

For thou shalt eat the labour of thy hands; happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

3 Thy wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of thy house, Thy sons as olive plants around thy table.

Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine in the inner part of thy house; thy children like olive-plants round about thy table.

4 Lo, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing Jehovah.

Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth Jehovah.

5 Jehovah doth bless thee out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of thy life,

Jehovah will bless thee out of Zion; and mayest thou see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life,

6 And see the sons of thy sons! Peace on Israel!

And see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel!
