Psalmorum 128

1 Canticum graduum. Beati omnes qui timent Dominum, qui ambulant in viis ejus.

A Canticle in steps. Blessed are all those who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways.

2 Labores manuum tuarum quia manducabis: beatus es, et bene tibi erit.

For you will eat by the labors of your hands. Blessed are you, and it will be well with you.

3 Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuæ; filii tui sicut novellæ olivarum in circuitu mensæ tuæ.

Your wife is like an abundant vine on the sides of your house. Your sons are like young olive trees surrounding your table.

4 Ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum.

Behold, so will the man be blessed who fears the Lord.

5 Benedicat tibi Dominus ex Sion, et videas bona Jerusalem omnibus diebus vitæ tuæ.

May the Lord bless you from Zion, and may you see the good things of Jerusalem, all the days of your life.

6 Et videas filios filiorum tuorum: pacem super Israël.

And may you see the sons of your sons. Peace be upon Israel.
