Psalm 128:1-6

Psalm

A Song of the Ascents.

128 Happy is everyone who fears Jehovah,+

Who walks in His ways.+

2 You will eat what your hands worked hard to produce.

You will be happy and will enjoy prosperity.+

3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house;+

Your sons will be like shoots of an olive tree around your table.

4 Look! That is how the man who fears Jehovah

Will be blessed.+

5 Jehovah will bless you from Zion.

May you see Jerusalem prosper all the days of your life+

6 And see the sons of your sons.

May there be peace upon Israel.
