International Standard Version | NET Bible |
1How blessed are all who fear the LORD as they follow in his ways. | 1A song of ascents. How blessed is every one of the LORD's loyal followers, each one who keeps his commands! |
2You will eat from the work of your hands; you will be happy, and it will go well for you. | 2You will eat what you worked so hard to grow. You will be blessed and secure. |
3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children like olive shoots surrounding your table. | 3Your wife will be like a fruitful vine in the inner rooms of your house; your children will be like olive branches, as they sit all around your table. |
4See how the man will be blessed who fears the LORD. | 4Yes indeed, the man who fears the LORD will be blessed in this way. |
5May the LORD bless you from Zion, and may you observe the prosperity of Jerusalem every day that you live! | 5May the LORD bless you from Zion, that you might see Jerusalem prosper all the days of your life, |
6And may you see your children's children! Peace be on Israel! | 6and that you might see your grandchildren. May Israel experience peace! |
