< Psalms 128 >

1 A Song of Ascents. Blessed is everyone who fears Yahweh, who walks in his ways.
A Song of Degrees. Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; who walk in his ways.
2 For you will eat the labor of your hands. You will be happy, and it will be well with you.
You shall eat the labors of your hands: blessed are you, and it shall be well with you.
3 Your wife will be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house, your children like olive shoots around your table.
Your wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the sides of your house: your children as young olive-plants round about your table.
4 Behold, this is how the man who fears Yahweh is blessed.
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears the Lord.
5 May Yahweh bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
May the Lord bless you out of Sion; and may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
6 Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.
And may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
