Christian Standard Bible | New International Version |
1How happy is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways! | 1A song of ascents. Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in obedience to him. |
2You will surely eat what your hands have worked for. You will be happy, and it will go well for you. | 2You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours. |
3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house, your children, like young olive trees around your table. | 3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table. |
4In this very way the man who fears the LORD will be blessed. | 4Yes, this will be the blessing for the man who fears the LORD. |
5May the LORD bless you from Zion, so that you will see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life | 5May the LORD bless you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life. |
6and will see your children's children! Peace be with Israel. | 6May you live to see your children's children-- peace be on Israel. |
