PSALM 128

Blessed are those who fear the Lord and walk in his ways.

A SONG OF DEGREES.

  1 Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in his ways.

  2 For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.

  3 Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.

  4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord.

  5 The Lord shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

  6 Yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace upon Israel.
