< Psalmorum 128 >

1 Canticum graduum. Beati omnes, qui timent Dominum, qui ambulant in viis eius.
A Song of Ascents. Blessed is every one that feareth Jehovah, That walketh in his ways.
2 Labores manuum tuarum quia manducabis: beatus es, et bene tibi erit.
For thou shalt eat the labor of thy 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 novellae olivarum, in circuitu mensae tuae.
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, thus shall the man be blessed That feareth Jehovah.
5 Benedicat tibi Dominus ex Sion: et videas bona Ierusalem omnibus diebus vitae tuae.
Jehovah 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 Israel.
Yea, see thou thy children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.
