Psalms 128

The Happy Home of the Faithful

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!
