Psalms 128
128
The Happy Home of the Faithful
A Song of Ascents.
1Happy is everyone who fears the Lord,
who walks in his ways.
2You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands;
you shall be happy, and it shall go well with you.
3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine
within your house;
your children will be like olive shoots
around your table.
4Thus shall the man be blessed
who fears the Lord.
5The Lord bless you from Zion.
May you see the prosperity of Jerusalem
all the days of your life.
6May you see your children's children.
Peace be upon Israel!

Psalms 128
128
(A song for worship.)
The Lord Rewards His Faithful People
1The Lord will bless you
if you respect him
and obey his laws.
2Your fields will produce,
and you will be happy—
all will go well.
3Your wife will be as fruitful
as a grapevine,
and just as an olive tree
is rich with olives,
your home will be rich
with healthy children.
4This is how the Lord will bless
everyone who respects him.
5I pray that the Lord
will bless you from Zion
and let Jerusalem prosper
as long as you live.
6May you live long enough
to see your grandchildren.
Let's pray for peace in Israel!
