Psalmorum 128

1 canticum graduum beati omnes qui timent Dominum qui ambulant in viis eius

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 tuae filii tui sicut novella olivarum in circuitu mensae tuae

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 te Dominus ex Sion et videas bona Hierusalem omnibus diebus vitae tuae

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 pax super Israhel

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