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 the LORD; 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 by the sides of thy house: thy children like olive plants around thy table.

4 Ecce sic benedicetur homo, qui timet Dominum.

Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.

5 Benedicat tibi Dominus ex Sion: et videas bona Ierusalem omnibus diebus vitæ tuæ.

The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

6 Et videas filios filiorum tuorum, pacem super Israel.

Yea, thou shalt see thy children’s children, and peace upon Israel.
