< Psalms 128 >
1 A Song of the Ascents. O the happiness of every one fearing Jehovah, Who is walking in His ways.
canticum graduum beati omnes qui timent Dominum qui ambulant in viis eius
2 The labour of thy hands thou surely eatest, Happy [art] thou, and good [is] to thee.
labores manuum tuarum quia; manducabis beatus es et bene tibi erit
3 Thy wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of thy house, Thy sons as olive plants around thy table.
uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuae filii tui sicut novella olivarum in circuitu mensae tuae
4 Lo, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing Jehovah.
ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum
5 Jehovah doth bless thee out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of thy life,
benedicat te Dominus ex Sion et videas bona Hierusalem omnibus diebus vitae tuae
6 And see the sons of thy sons! Peace on Israel!
et videas filios filiorum tuorum pax super Israhel
