< 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 ascents. Blessed is everyone who honors Yahweh, who walks in his ways.
2 The labour of thy hands thou surely eatest, Happy [art] thou, and good [is] to thee.
What your hands provide, you will enjoy; you will be blessed and prosper.
3 Thy wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of thy house, Thy sons as olive plants around thy table.
Your wife will be like a fruitful vine in your house; your children will be like olive plants as they sit around your table.
4 Lo, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing Jehovah.
Yes, indeed, the man will be blessed who honors Yahweh.
5 Jehovah doth bless thee out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of thy life,
May Yahweh bless you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
6 And see the sons of thy sons! Peace on Israel!
May you live to see your children's children. May peace be on Israel.
