Psalmorum 128

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

A Song of Ascents. Happy is every one that feareth the LORD, that walketh in His ways.

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

When thou eatest the labour of thy 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, in the innermost parts of thy house; thy children like olive plants, round about thy table.

4 Ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum.

Behold, surely 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 bless thee out of Zion; and see thou the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life;

6 Et videas filios filiorum tuorum: pacem super Israël.

And see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel!
