Psalms 128

1 A Song of the going up. Happy is the worshipper of the Lord, who is walking in his ways.

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

2 You will have the fruit of the work of your hands: happy will you be, and all will be well for you.

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

3 Your wife will be like a fertile vine in the inmost parts of your house: your children will be like olive plants round your table.

Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuæ; filii tui sicut novellæ olivarum in circuitu mensæ tuæ.

4 See! this is the blessing of the worshipper of the Lord.

Ecce sic benedicetur homo qui timet Dominum.

5 May the Lord send you blessing out of Zion: may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

Benedicat tibi Dominus ex Sion, et videas bona Jerusalem omnibus diebus vitæ tuæ.

6 May you see your children's children. Peace be on Israel.

Et videas filios filiorum tuorum: pacem super Israël.
