Psalm 128  English Standard Version

Blessed Is Everyone Who Fears the Lord

A Song of (A)Ascents.

128 (B)Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord,
    who (C)walks in his ways!
2 You (D)shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands;
    you shall be blessed, and it shall be well with you.

3 Your wife will be like (E)a fruitful vine
    within your house;
your children will be like (F)olive shoots
    around your table.
4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed
    who fears the Lord.

5 (G)The Lord bless you (H)from Zion!
    May you see (I)the prosperity of Jerusalem
    all the days of your life!
6 May you see your (J)children's children!
    (K)Peace be upon Israel!
