< Psalms 128 >

1 A song of degrees. Blessed is euery one that feareth the Lord and walketh in his wayes.
A song of ascents. Happy all who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways.
2 When thou eatest the labours of thine hands, thou shalt be blessed, and it shall be well with thee.
You will eat what your hands have toiled for, and be happy and prosperous!
3 Thy wife shalbe as the fruitfull vine on the sides of thine house, and thy children like the oliue plantes round about thy table.
Like a fruitful vine shall your wife be in the innermost room of your house: your children, like olive shoots, round about your table.
4 Lo, surely thus shall the man be blessed, that feareth the Lord.
See! This is the blessing of the man who fears the Lord.
5 The Lord out of Zion shall blesse thee, and thou shalt see the wealth of Ierusalem all the dayes of thy life.
The Lord shall bless you from Zion. You will see Jerusalem nourish all the days of your life.
6 Yea, thou shalt see thy childrens children, and peace vpon Israel.
You will see your children’s children. Peace upon Israel.
