Psalmorum 128

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

A Song of the Ascents. O the happiness of every one fearing Jehovah, Who is walking in His ways.

2 labores manuum tuarum quia; manducabis beatus es et bene tibi erit

The labour of thy hands thou surely eatest, Happy [art] thou, and good [is] to thee.

3 uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuae filii tui sicut novella olivarum in circuitu mensae tuae

Thy wife [is] as a fruitful vine in the sides of thy house, Thy sons as olive plants around thy table.

4 ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum

Lo, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing Jehovah.

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

Jehovah doth bless thee out of Zion, Look, then, on the good of Jerusalem, All the days of thy life,

6 et videas filios filiorum tuorum pax super Israhel

And see the sons of thy sons! Peace on Israel!
