Psalms 128



128

A song for going up to the Temple.[611]

<1> Those who fear and respect the Lord

and live the way he wants will enjoy his blessings.

<2> You will get what you work for.

You will enjoy God's blessings,

and all will go well for you.

<3> At home, your wife will be like a vine full of grapes;

she will have many children.

Around the table, you will have many children

like an orchard full of olive trees.

<4> Yes, the Lord will really bless those who respect him.

<5> May the Lord bless you from Mount Zion.[612]

May you enjoy the blessings of Jerusalem all your life.

<6> And may you live to see your grandchildren.

Let Israel always enjoy peace!
