< Psalms 128 >

1 A Song of degrees. Blessed [is] every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.
A song of ascents. Blessed is everyone who honors Yahweh, who walks in his ways.
2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy [shalt] thou [be], and [it shall be] well with thee.
What your hands provide, you will enjoy; you will be blessed and prosper.
3 Thy wife [shall be] as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.
Your wife will be like a fruitful vine in your house; your children will be like olive plants as they sit around your table.
4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.
Yes, indeed, the man will be blessed who honors Yahweh.
5 The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
May Yahweh bless you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, [and] peace upon Israel.
May you live to see your children's children. May peace be on Israel.
