Blessings of Those Who Fear the Lord
A Song of Ascents.
1 Blessed is every one who fears the Lord,
Who walks in His ways.
A Song of Ascents.
1 Blessed is every one who fears the Lord,
Who walks in His ways.
2 When you eat the [a]labor of your hands,
You shall be happy, and it shall be well with you.
You shall be happy, and it shall be well with you.
3 Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine
In the very heart of your house,
Your children like olive plants
All around your table.
In the very heart of your house,
Your children like olive plants
All around your table.
4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed
Who fears the Lord.
Who fears the Lord.
5 The Lord bless you out of Zion,
And may you see the good of Jerusalem
All the days of your life.
And may you see the good of Jerusalem
All the days of your life.
6 Yes, may you see your children’s children.
Peace be upon Israel!
Peace be upon Israel!
Psalms, 128 psalm
