Psalmorum 128

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

A Song of degrees. Blessed [is] every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.

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

For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy [shalt] thou [be], and [it shall be] well with thee.

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

Thy wife [shall be] as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.

4 Ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum.

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

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

The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

6 Et videas filios filiorum tuorum: pacem super Israël.

Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, [and] peace upon Israel.
