Psalmorum 128

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

A Song of degrees. 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 labour of thy hands; happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

3 Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans, in lateribus domus tuæ. Filii tui sicut novellæ olivarum, in circuitu mensæ tuæ.

Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine in the inner part 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 vitæ tuæ.

Jehovah will bless thee out of Zion; and mayest thou see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life,

6 Et videas filios filiorum tuorum, pacem super Israel.

And see thy children's children. Peace be upon Israel!
